Mass deportation is a pillar of President-elect Donald Trump's immigration policy plans for his second term. CBS News immigration and politics reporter Camilo Montoya-Galvez explains what the operation could look like.

Can we Americans enter into other countries without the proper paperwork? I think not.

[karenpigage]

Start with the illegal gang members/ drug cartels/ that are taking over apartment complexes .

[oliviaf.]

I can't wait. So many of those people got away with free resources meanwhile true Americans are struggling and some Veterans are homeless on the streets

[benzspidaa]

So, since people hired a convicted felon, do other felons get to vote, and do employers stop asking about convictions on job applications?

[donnadao]

Entering another country without proper paperwork is illegal.

[MsHarasan]

Cut off all the free money first to those who came in the last 4 years.

[nickm]

Open borders wasn't working for us.

[paulcooper]

If I lived in another country illegally, I would have the expectation of being deported. If my entire family lived there illegally, I would have the expectation of my entire family being deported. 1+1=2. Very basic and easy to comprehend.

Mexican here, every country has its immigration laws, the laws are there for a reason. I became a US citizen the legal way, yes, it took about 15 years but I'm finally and happy to be an American. And it is true, it feels like a slap to the face to us that went through the hard and long process.

[Thestrongalwayssurvive]

All people should apply for citizenship. You act like it's horrible. Every country has rules. Go by the law. We can't go to other countries without following their laws.

All i want to know is how SOON can he get rid of them .

[JanelleOrtiz-erpd]

Sounds expensive. Hopefully he will start taxing the rich.

[taytrong]

My family became citizens only after 6 years in the US, came from Vietnam legally.

[ChosenOne]

They dont have to go home, but they cant stay here.

[UNCguy]

Yall fools bout to see what yall done good luck american

[BelleCaliMusic]

Farmers will be short of people working for them, so prices will go up, or start planting your fruits and vegetables.

[theniteowl]

looks like Americans are gonna have to work at Mcdonalds now.

[kchapo_]

Get them all out. They don’t pay federal taxes. It’s not fair on us AMERICANS

[timothykramer]

Trump is going to kick him out and we're going to save our tax money finally

[robertjr]

I understand the economic reasons as to deporting them, but it still bugs me how people who were luckily born here in the US (didn’t have to work to be here or anything, just simply fortunate) are happy making these people go back to a life where they are constantly living in fear.

It just rubs me the wrong way knowing Americans do not value other peoples lives as much because the law says they are immigrants.
