On Thursday, President-elect Donald Trump declared that he will not “do business” with any country that refuses to take back all of the illegal aliens who have come to America from that country.

As the New York Post reports, President-elect Trump’s declaration was one of many things that he said in his lengthy interview with Time magazine after the outlet declared him to be 2024’s “Man of the Year.”

“I’ll get them into every country, or we won’t do business with those countries,” said the president-elect. “I want them out, and the countries have got to take them back, and if they don’t take them back, we won’t do business with those countries, and we will tariff those countries very substantially.”

“When they send products in, they will have substantial tariffs, and it’s going to make it very hard for them to do business with us,” he added.

As in 2016, President Trump campaigned heavily on the issue of mass immigration, vowing on the campaign trail to finish building the southern border wall that he started in his first term, and to carry out the largest mass deportation operation in American history. To this end, he announced former ICE Director Tom Homan from the first administration as his new “Border Czar.”

President-elect Trump has suggested a wide variety of tactics for convincing third-world countries to accept the illegals that are deported back to them, including tariffs and sanctions. The President of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum, has already agreed to enforce immigration laws within Mexico to try to prevent any further illegal caravans from crossing through her country on their way to the United States.

“Whatever it takes to get them out. I don’t care,” President-elect Trump continued. “Honestly, whatever it takes to get them out. Again, I’ll do it absolutely within the confines of the law, but if it needs new camps, but I hope we’re not going to need too many because I want to get them out, and I don’t want them sitting in camp for the next 20 years.”

Time’s 2024 “Person of the Year” edition marks the second time that President Trump has won the award, following his first electoral victory in 2016. He was also consistently listed among the runner-ups for the award in 2015, 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2020, thus marking six consecutive times that he was either a runner-up or the winner of the award, a longer streak than anyone else in the 97-year history of the publication’s award.
