Summary

The Bahamas has rejected a proposal from Donald Trump’s transition team to accept deported migrants from other nations, a key part of his plan to overhaul U.S. immigration policy.

Prime Minister Philip Davis’s office stated there have been no further discussions since their refusal.

Trump’s deportation strategy, which targets countries like Panama and Grenada, raises concerns about displacing individuals to nations they have no ties to.

This proposal aligns with Trump’s campaign promises of mass deportations and is overseen by Tom Homan, a hardline immigration official from Trump’s previous administration.

    Trump doesn’t even follow his own country’s laws, I doubt he’ll care much about another’s.

      The point is THEY won’t brake THEIR laws. If you want an example of what the looks like, just look at Gaza and Egypt.

      Trump isn’t in charge of Bahamas. So if they say nobody gets off a plane in their airport, then nobody can get off the plane. The pilot can either sit in the cockpit forever or fly everyone home.

        This is not a man who wouldn’t use force to make it happen anyway.

          It’s pointless to use force. That would mean breaking all treaties with the Bahamas. Which would free the Bahamas to do things that are normally prohibited, like putting all the newly arrived immigrants on a boat and sailing them 50 miles right back to Florida.

            This whole charade is pointless. We are not talking about a rational human.
