President Trump is set to take the presidential oath of office for the second time later this month, continuing his hardline stance on immigration. He has promised to deport millions of undocumented immigrants, with a large number residing in California. Despite the declaration of sanctuary cities in California, local authorities are unlikely to cooperate with federal deportation efforts. Trump plans to deploy federal agents and even use the military to enforce deportation orders. This could result in seeing troops and military hardware in city streets, reminiscent of the Civil War. Mass deportations will have economic consequences, as many businesses rely on undocumented workers. Lawsuits may be filed to challenge Trump’s emergency declaration, but it is expected to survive with a conservative majority in the Supreme Court. Trump’s immigration policies are complex and may not be as effective as he promises. The future of immigration enforcement under the Trump administration remains uncertain.
