Summary
Donald Trump suggested deporting violent repeat American offenders to foreign countries willing to incarcerate them for a small fee.
The proposal, shared at a Republican retreat in Florida, has no legal precedent in the U.S. and would require new legislation.
Critics cite constitutional concerns, including the Eighth Amendment that prohibits “cruel and unusual punishments.”
The idea follows Trump’s broader crackdown on illegal immigration, which a recent poll shows has significant bipartisan support.
Sounds like an excuse to put people into work camps as they perpetually wait for somewhere to be deported to. (Hint: The camp is the destination.)
2026: Hmmm, these camps are looking pretty full, and deportation is super expensive. We really need to solve this problem once and for all
Finally, one might say.
A Solution, if you will…
