Trump Finds Another Country to Accept His ~~Mass Deportations~~ concentration camps.

ftfy.

I guess as a dictator it's sorta evil genius as you now offload the responsibility for human rights violations to some other country and can then bald face lie that you had nothing to do with the terrible conditions the people endured.

I mean the first concentration camps weren't in Germany. They were in Poland.

Literally following the Hitler playbook.

It probably goes without saying at this point, but deporting someone to a culture in which they're not competent is wildly immoral, and doing so in such a way that they end up encarcerated in subhuman conditions especially despite not committing a crime in that jurisdiction is monstrous.

Trump said "Help, Rwanda. Help help, Rwanda", and Rwanda obliged.

Can Canada step up as a host country? We'll take the money, we'll take the at-risk migrants and their kids and ... well, I guess we'll ensure they disappear out the back door right into our culture and get jobs and stuff. Trump will never see them again.

There's a hotel there, right?
