Donald Trump, the leading candidate for the Republican Party's 2024 presidential
nomination, has pledged to escalate immigration crackdowns if re-elected,
leaving the possibility open for a revival of the controversial family
separations at the US-Mexico border.
While some former Trump officials express concerns about potential
public backlash, Trump emphasizes the
efficacy of such separations in deterring migrants. Democratic President Joe
Biden's campaign seizes on Trump's stance, labeling it as an example of extreme
policies.
Civil rights activists stand ready for legal challenges, citing past court
orders and settlement agreements restricting such actions. |
