Donald Trump will keep his vow to deport
millions of undocumented migrants from the United States, he said in an
interview to be broadcast Sunday, saying as many as three million could
be removed after he takes office.
“What we are going to do is get the
people that
are criminal and have criminal records, gang members, drug
dealers, where a lot of these people, probably two million, it could be
even three million — we are getting them out of our country or we are
going to incarcerate,” Trump said in an excerpt released ahead of
broadcast by CBS’s 60 Minutes program.
The billionaire real estate baron made
security at the US-Mexico border a central plank of his insurgent
presidential campaign, which resulted in last Tuesday’s shock election
victory against his Democratic rival Hillary Clinton.
Trump added that the barrier to be
erected on the US border with Mexico may not consist entirely of brick
and mortar, but that fencing could be used in some areas.
“There could be some fencing,” Trump says in his first primetime interview since being elected president last week.
“But (for) certain areas, a wall is more appropriate. I’m very good at this, it’s called construction,” he tells CBS
