Former President Donald Trump said during an interview this week that he was prepared to conduct mass deportations if he wins the presidential race in November following millions of illegal aliens pouring into the U.S. under President Joe Biden’s administration.

Trump, who made the remarks during an interview with Fox News host Jesse Watters broadcast on Tuesday, noted that former President Dwight Eisenhower “did the largest deportation ever in this country.”

“He was very big on people not coming into our country, people breaking our sealed borders,” Trump said. “It’s a hard thing to do, harder than a long time ago with Dwight Eisenhower. A lot harder. Nobody complained in those days, it was you know, we had a country that was much different.”

Trump said that conducting mass deportations could give the media opportunities to create exaggerated perceptions of him by amplifying images of women with children getting swept up in raids.

“We have no choice, we have to get the criminals out,” Trump said. “These are murderers. These are drug dealers. These are people that will take women and put them in the trunk of a car and sell them to the highest bidder, they’ll come across the border, human traffickers. Actually, it’s almost as big as the drug trade. Now, you wouldn’t even believe this. And the reason is because of the internet. The internet has made that into a massive business, human trafficking, it’s mostly in women.”

He added that part of the reason so many illegal aliens have entered the U.S. is that the drug cartels run Mexico, and they will kill anyone, including politicians, who get in their way.
