Here lies one major problem is that US doesn't have the manpower nor the might to get rid of invaders. What makes Americans think they can beat China or Russia really head on in a war without resorting to nukes? If we can't deport unarmed illegals here, it can easily cause a major nationwide issue if these invaders were to suddenly turned to mutiny if they knew a deportation is underway. We have a huge crisis on our hands.
They can be deported, it’s just going to take a long time to do it.
He needs to take executive action to perform these tasks? I think he and his administration could be doing this right now, if they wanted.
That's the "normal" liberal Democrat way of doing things.....do something stupid, which creates a huge issue, blame the conservatives for it, then claim that they're going to solve the massive problem (that THEY created, in the first place!!), and be the heroes of the day......
Back in the 1950's "operation w3tbvck" deported over 1 million in around 6 months. I'm sure we could do it again.
Except now we have at least 30 million here today. I'm afraid we are going to be stuck with most of them unless we use much harsher measures than when Ike did it.

We also have 5 times as many CBP agents as we did in the 1950's

I think that's the job of Homeland Security not the Border Patrol but yes of course there are more DHS employees now. Eisenhower conducted raids on farms as that is where most illegals were working. That's not the case today. Millions of businesses would have to be raided.

Raids alone won't solve anything. As have said many state or local governments have laid down law for some time, they won't cooperate in any way feds on immigration raids. Without such local support from major areas where illegals are (CA, NY, etc...) raids become expensive, time consuming and not very productive.
Ramp up I-9 audits and consequences, that will make many employers think twice about hiring illegals.
That being said however there are major issues with all sorts of INS actions.
Take construction. While it varies by area most major urban ones have tons of illegals on both small or large jobs. Problem is by time contractor or sub sends in paperwork, gets back "no match" letter from SSA, and or even INS does show up whatever work contractor or sub was doing is often done and workers gone.

In regards to a major deportation effort business raids would have to be the number one method. No audits needed just prove to the feds during the raid that you are an authorized worker. Homeland Security wouldn't be able to enter private homes to weed them out. We keep being told that immigration is a federal matter so why would they need to have local support?
