The Mobro 4000 was a garbage barge loaded with trash from NYC which set sail to North Carolina, which turned it away. It spent months at sea trying to find a place where it could go but nobody wanted it. It ended up returning to port where the trash was incinerated.

So, this fits the Stephen Miller mindset. To him and trump, they're just "dumping the trash." That's bloody lovely.

The UK's last conservative government had a similar plan: Just send asylum seekers to Rwanda.

I suspect most countries will refuse to take more than a few of their citizens back. Poorer countries just can't handle that many refugees.

I still predict what will actually come about is internment camps where immigrants are forced to do the same jobs they used to do before they were captured, but for basically no pay. So slave labor. This is the only way they can round up millions of hard-working immigrants without causing a major economic disruption. Plus the billionaires who own private prisons and companies benefitting from the slave labor will be salivating at all the profit to be made.

since German refused to take his own grandfather back (though I bet they are regretting that decision now).
