Right, but do you carry it with you 100% of the time? Is that going to be a new requirement that everyone has to carry ID all the time? And if they aren't then they get hauled off to somewhere to be held until they are shipped off to wherever? That seems kind of, I don't know, gestapo-ish. I though we were for personal and nationwide freedom. That doesn't sound very free to me.

It would be a full time job to keep up with the levels of sleazy characters that Trump and company attract.

Not usually, no. We live in the United States. One doesn't "carry papers" and really, police or storm troopers are not just allowed to ask for ID without cause. Being brown is not a cause, or at least isn't until next January if Trump wins.
You don’t drive?
I have a license with me when I drive, sure, but not usually at other times.

They won’t be in concentration camps. They will be in their countries of origin.
And how will this be done exactly? When they are "rounded up" where will they be taken? And then, how will the be returned to their countries of origin? How many brown people will be rounded up who actually are Americans?
NP- People do get sent back, right now. There is a whole removal procedure in place. Whole planes of people get sent back, every single week. Trump might want to increase the number of deportations, but the procedure of mass deportations itself is not new and not a GOP-only policy.
Here, from the DHS website: During the first half of Fiscal Year (FY) 2023, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) increased removals and returns to 225,483, up from 170,896 over the same period in Fiscal Year (FY) 2022. That number includes nearly 66,000 removals, 48,381 of which were conducted through U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) removal flights. Those numbers are in addition to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) total southwest land border Title 42 expulsions, which reached 453,322 in that same timeframe.
Oh, so the border ISN'T open?
GOP says otherwise. Thanks for posting facts. I guess MORE are being deported now than under Trump. Hmmm...

Trump and Vance actually anger a lot of conservatives by being vocally supportive of Social Security. They’re economic populists and have more in common with Warren than Grover Norquist, from an economic perspective.
And they’ll still erase Social Security at the first chance. Milk before meat goes the saying, or “don’t scare the normals.”
They won’t erase it for the current retirees, that’s too much of their core base and wouldn’t play well. They’ll more likely to phase it out for the younger generations, or reduce benefits to the point that they aren’t useful, and package it as “personal responsibility.”
