according to the Wall Street Journal Trump plans to deport 4% of the US population - probably amongst the most productive citizens how's that gonna work?

They chose the least damaging option. Sure. Said as much. Whether that's financial damage is a bit speculative.You’re getting like Keith Moon on the 115 thread. A silly answer to every point made. His opponents paid up in the libel case because it was the cheapest option.
If I might I ask, what causes inflation? The answer to that question might help you understand this better.Here we go again. Inflation is dealt with by the Fed reserve, not the White House. The force for inflation lies with the House of Reps. Note they have just declined to increase the borrowing limit.

They should confiscate all the frozen assets to pay for it then.Reparations would entail a level of contrition from the Russians that simply isn’t going to manifest itself.
Absolutely no chance.
I watched a WSJ video on YouTube yesterday and to be fair I thought they sounded OK (if the standard today is you cant believe a word a politician says). If I understand them right they are going to start with the most obvious cases (stuff that was probably going to be done no matter whos in charge) and admit that what they said pre election was nonesense in reality given the scale of the challenge so its a multi year effort.according to the Wall Street Journal Trump plans to deport 4% of the US population - probably amongst the most productive citizens how's that gonna work?
I could be wrong but it seems that both parties want the same thing but republicans just can't help themselves being drama queens.

I think I’ve seen that too. To be fair, I heard Trump in an interview say they would start with criminals, gang members and when asked about a law-abiding “illegal” who’d built a business, led a productive life etc he said “well, we’d have to think carefully about that” The interview was over an hour long by ABC News. Worth a watch. I didn’t hear anything from the Democrat side on deportation of criminals or gang-members but their messaging was so garbled, I could easily have missed. You’d certainly hope they’d do the same had they won.
Quite what will happen with these “Sanctuary Cities” will be very interesting !

Tom Homan, the Border Czar, he has been explaining this on every tv station every day since he got nominated.I watched a WSJ video on YouTube yesterday and to be fair I thought they sounded OK (if the standard today is you cant believe a word a politician says).

They are starting with illegals who have committed crimes in the US and/or in their country of origin. By their estimations there are close to 1 million of those.
Then, based on how successful they are, they'll move on to the next priority level. In the process of finding the first priority level folks, you know, the Tren De Aragua gang types, if they come across an illegal alien who isnt a part of that priority group, that alien too would be picked up.
The greatest challenge to their efforts are going to come from Democrat run States some of whom have vowed that they'd rather have illegal alien criminals terrorize their citizens than help out in the removal process. So your California's of the world would be a safe haven for Venezuelan gangs in the near future.
Already, I see New York and Massachusetts have signalled that they aren't so gong ho about the 'sanctuary city' labels, and will be willing to follow the law and help ICE remove criminals from their States. Hypocritical? sure but we forgive those who's understanding come late.
You'd think this is a no-brainer but then there are Democrats in Democrat heavens like California and Washington who might disagree.

You got it perfectly right. Democrats equivocatedI think I’ve seen that too.

On the issue all through the campaign. Their core message was "the border is broken, let's fix it." It's a way of pretending to say something while not saying anything.
Trump had solutions 1) Finish building yhe wall, 2) Reinstitute the Stay in Mexico policy 3) Deport all illegal Aliens. 4) Start with know Criminals who have committed a crime here or in their home country.
There is a clear difference. You may not like his solution. But you know what it is. With the Democrats, it was stating the obvious and platitudes.
The oldest politically financial question. For me, government increasing the supply of money, either by spending or other means such as quantitative easing is the key. Right wingers tend to blame wage inceases but I don’t agree with that, it is cart before the horse imho. As usual, you offer nothing just your normal pretence. My bet is you have no idea.If I might I ask, what causes inflation? The answer to that question might help you understand this better.
Just what action did the Biden administration take to curb inflation, but failed as you stated? Start with increased spending of 3 trillion.
