Trump thinks that immigration is his key to reelection but he is digging his own grave by defending family deportations.

Trump doubled down on family deportations

The people that Ice will apprehend have already been ordered to be deported. This means that they have run from the law and run from the courts. These are people that are supposed to go back to their home country. They broke the law by coming into the country, & now by staying. — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 22, 2019

When people come into our Country illegally, they will be DEPORTED! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 22, 2019

Trump already tried this in 2018 and lost

Trump doesn’t have an immigration policy. He isn’t offering a solution to the problem. The president’s idea is to throw all of the immigrants out, and build a wall so that they can’t come in. Trump’s ideas are very unpopular with the rest of the country outside of his base, but Donald Trump doesn’t see the rest of America. This is a president who doesn’t think that he needs swing voters to win.

Donald Trump is doubling down on bad ideas. He already tried this in 2018, and this same immigration stance will lead to a potentially crushing defeat in 2020.
