During a chat with NBC News this past week, President-elect Donald Trump revealed that his incoming administration has "no choice" but to carry out mass deportations of illegal aliens right out of the gate – and no matter the cost.
When asked how much it will cost to carry out his plan for mass deportations, which is scheduled to commence on Day One right after the inauguration, Trump responded with this:
"It's not a question of a price tag. Really, we have no choice."
"When people have killed and murdered, when drug lords have destroyed countries. And now they're going to go back to those countries because they're not staying here. There is no price tag."
While on the campaign trail, Trump pledged to America that he will remove the roughly 11 million people, officially speaking, who are currently living in the U.S. without permission – though Trump says the true number is closer to 21 million illegals.
"We obviously have to make the border strong and powerful, and we have to – at the same time, we want people to come into our country," Trump continued about the need for some legal immigrants but not the overwhelming hordes of illegals that are tearing apart the fabric of America.
"And, you know, I'm not somebody that says, 'No, you can't come in.' We want people to come in."

Trump's mass deportations could cost $315 billion, warns nonprofit
The biggest concern about Trump's plan for mass deportations seems to be the price tag. The American Immigration Council says it could cost as much as $315 billion to do what Trump is proposing.
Democrats are likewise upset about the plan, though they would be regardless since it came from Trump.
Both Trump and Vice President-elect J.D. Vance say the benefits of the mass deportations plan far exceed the costs, not to mention the longstanding economic benefits of cleaning up the country and sealing the border to only allow legal immigration.
"Kicking out illegal immigrants who are competing for those homes" would help to bring down housing costs, for instance. Vance made this claim back on October 1 as part of Trump's campaign.
Some economists are skeptical, though, that housing prices will budge much from the plan. The real problem, they say, stems from anti-growth policies that for a very long time have resulted in the massive underbuilding of homes all across the United States.
Another problem, of course, is America's corrupt financial system, which at the current time is a Ponzi scheme run by a private central bank cartel called the Federal Reserve that prints fiat paper "money" out of thin air, massively diluting the pool of U.S. dollars and eating away at Americans' buying power through the theft of their labor.
All of this and more deserves serious attention from the incoming Trump administration that will hopefully work to restore sound money policies that will ultimately prevent any private central bank from ever again taking over and becoming a national parasite on the fruit of Americans' labor.
"Don't let the mainstream media fool you: U.S. citizens are overwhelmingly for mass deportations," one commenter wrote, warning Americans not to fall for the inevitable sob story reporting from the mainstream media about how families are "being separated" because of Trump's mass deportations.
"The current administration has never given a reason as to why they opened the border in the first place," wrote another. "They wanted to change America culturally, economically, politically, and geographically."
