(StraightShooterNews.com) – Seeking to prevent America from devolving into further chaos, GOP vice-presidential nominee J.D. Vance recently revealed he supports a large-scale deportation of illegal aliens, starting with one million individuals.
After the Biden-Harris administration decided to open the southern border to create the biggest migrant crisis in American history, Vance aligned with Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump’s firm immigration policies.
Speaking on ABC’s “This Week,” Vance said he was confident in their ticket’s success in the upcoming November election and discussed their immigration strategy.
This conversation echoes Trump’s earlier statements to TIME, where he called for the mass deportation of millions of illegals, using the National Guard to make the process easier.
“I don’t believe this is sustainable for a country, what’s happening to us, with probably 15 million and maybe as many as 20 million by the time Biden’s out,” Trump remarked.
“Twenty million people, many of them from jails, many of them from prisons, many of them from mental institutions. I mean, you see what’s going on in Venezuela and other countries. They’re becoming a lot safer,” he added.
Vance outlined a phased approach to this extensive deportation plan: “You start with what’s achievable.”
He stated, “I think that if you deport a lot of violent criminals and frankly if you make it harder to hire illegal labor, which undercuts the wages of American workers, I think you go a lot of the way to solving the illegal immigration problem.”
“I think it’s interesting that people focus on, well, how do you deport 18 million people? Let’s start with 1 million. That’s where Kamala Harris has failed. And then we can go from there,” he challenged.
Beyond immigration, Vance also touched on broader societal concerns. He urged the U.S. to adopt more pro-family policies amid worries about the country’s declining birthrate.
Addressing previous controversies, Vance lamented that his “childless cat ladies” comment was misinterpreted.
“Do I regret saying it? I regret that the media and the Kamala Harris campaign has, frankly, distorted what I said,” he explained.
“They turn this into a policy proposal that I never made. … I said, I want us to be more pro-family, and I do want us to be more pro-family,” he concluded.
