Can you see any flaws in Trump’s new plan?

The US government is offering migrants who are in the country illegally a sum worth $1,000 plus paid travel if they decide to leave the US.

One of the flaws might be an illegal could get in line – collect $1000 and a free plane ticket – leave the US – sneak back in – buy a fake mustache – and get back in line for another $1000 and free plane ticket.

Another flaw might be lack of interest. Someone that walked 100s of miles and crossed rivers of barbed wire to get into the US are not going to take the offer.

The WH has already said that an illegal has signed up and I’m sure that next week they will be claiming that 1000s of illegals have signed up.

Cheers!

    That is not the only reason one has to pass an NCIC check.  So, let's say you want to work at a particular job and that job requires an NCIC background check, you do not have to be a citizen to pass the check.

    To pass a check to buy a gun, you have to be a citizen. (Which was the topic Slartibartfast ansd I were discussing)
    Now, I would also assume a job that requires an NCIC check would also require citizenship for that job.   But there certainly could be exceptions.

    They can leave freely on their own (with $1,000) or be unvoluntarily deported and never be allowed to be considered for legal immigration again.  

    Sounds like a good deal for the illegal. 

    I am sure if they come back, they will be deported or jailed and then deported with no option to apply for legal entry in the future.

    I'm sure the press secretary will be claiming 460m illegals have taken this offer and left by June. Just hope they don't use the money to buy fentanyl, otherwise the death count will go up by another 50m before they've got on the plane.
