Former US President Donald Trump, who is the Republican candidate for the 2024 presidential race, has promised that the largest deportation operation in American history will be conducted if he is re-elected to power.
Addressing a convention in Michigan, Trump called upon supporters to vote in the November election for a President who will throw "radical Islamic terrorists" out of the country.
He asserted, "On Day One of my new administration, we will begin the largest deportation operation in American history.
Trump and his supporters have been building a narrative ahead of the election that Democratic President Joe Biden has made it easier for immigrants to come to the US.
On multiple occasions in the run-up to the election, Trump has put forth his anti-immigrant policies, calling for a total rejection of immigrants.

“The choice for every voter in November is clear: You can have a President who lets thousands of radical Islamic terrorists into our country, or you can decide to have a President who throws radical Islamic terrorists the hell out of our country,” he said.
He asserted, "On Day One of my new administration, we will begin the largest deportation operation in American history. We have no choice. This is not sustainable".
Trump's comments came as the Republican camp is trying to highlight the 'migrant invasion.' Trump and his supporters have been building a narrative ahead of the election that Democratic President Joe Biden has made it easier for immigrants to come to the US. He often referred to the crimes committed by migrants as "Biden migrant crime."
On multiple occasions in the run-up to the election, Trump has put forth his anti-immigrant policies, calling for a total rejection of immigrants.
In the latest instance on Saturday, indirectly referring to the recent arrest of eight people with suspected links to ISIS, Trump said, "Our country has never been in danger like it is in danger right now". He claimed that thousands of terrorists were pouring into the US and said, "Our country is going to pay a steep price for many, many years".
In April, he described immigrants in the US as "animals" and repeated his previous charge that they are "poisoning the blood of our country," a remark that has drawn sharp criticism.
