A far-right conservative Donald Trump is considering appointing as his administration’s “immigration tsar”, has gone on the record suggesting creating “camps” for asylum seekers in the United States.

While appearing on Fox Business’ "Lou Dobbs Tonight," Kris Kobach proposed the US detain people who enter the country to claim asylum in camps and station them in confined “processing towns”.

“Create processing towns that are confined, and so when someone comes in and falsely claims asylum, we don’t release them for six months onto the streets of the United States,” Mr Kobach, who is President Trump’s top choice for immigration tsar, said on Tuesday.

“We process them right there, in that camp, where they have the three square meals, they’re living in a nice mobile home, and then as soon as they’re done, as soon as the claim is rejected, they’re on the next plane back home,” he added in his proposal where asylum seekers are concentrated — or interned — at camps.

Lou Dobbs, the host of the self-titled news programme, praised Mr Kobach’s internment camp suggestion for asylum seekers. He chimed in saying that a camp detaining asylum seekers would “bring all of that unused government property to use, effectively and at very little cost, if not no cost, in fact, to the Department of Homeland Security”.
