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!

    To pass the NCIC background check, you must be a citizen.  
    This has been settled in the courts.  And upheld numerous times.

    IlLEGALS are not part of We The People in the Construction.  This post was edited by my2cents at May 8, 2025 5:26 AM MDT

    And the citizen spouses of "illegals" (some deportees are in the country legally, some granted refugee status and waiting for their citizenship application to be processed) are therefore allowed to be heeled. And defend their families.

    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.
