Trump understands this and doesn’t intend on doing it. He’s going to feign an attempt at deportation, there will be an immediate challenge in the courts, and instead of fighting them, he’ll blame liberals for getting in the way. In doing so, he’ll not only avoid criticism for failing to deliver on a BS campaign promise, he’ll actually solidify the support of those who fell for it in the first place.

I agree with this in part. He'll most likely will focus on the big cities LA/NYC/Chicago in liberal states, and leave the farmers in Wyoming/Idaho/Iowa alone. If not, he'll find out very soon the consequences of fucking around. That said, if a guy like Stephen Miller is at it, I wouldn't put it past him to do it all.
