He made this remark during a Dec. 17 campaign rally in Reno, Nevada. Trump, the frontrunner among the other Republican presidential candidates for the party's nomination, also denounced the immigration policies of incumbent President Joe Biden.
The real estate mogul-turned-chief executive minced no words, calling Biden a "low-IQ individual" and the "most incompetent and most corrupt" president. Trump added that his successor's lax immigration policies have created a scenario where large-scale action is required to counteract the issue.
"Given the unprecedented millions of Biden illegal aliens who are invading our country, it is only common sense that when I'm reelected, we will begin – and we have no choice – the largest deportation operation in American history," he told the crowd in Reno.
Trump added that on his first day in the White House, he would "terminate every open-borders policy of the Biden administration." He also promised to invoke the Alien Enemies Act, arguing that doing so would lead to the removal of "all known or suspected gang members, drug dealers or cartel members" from the United States.
Trump's remarks followed statements he delivered the previous day at a rally in New Hampshire. The former president lamented the illegal immigrants "from Africa, from Asia [and] all over the world" were "poisoning the blood of [the] country."
Biden's campaign team quickly pounced on the remarks, denouncing Trump's rhetoric as similar to that of Adolf Hitler. In his book "Mein Kampf" (My Struggle), the Nazi leader referred to superior cultures of the past perishing and dying out due to what he called "blood poisoning."

"Trump channeled his role models as he parroted Adolf Hitler," the Biden campaign said. It added that the GOP frontrunner is "not shying away from his plan to lock millions of people into detention camps." (Related: Get ready for large-scale military-run concentration camps across America.)
Aside from mass deportation, Trump has also pledged to implement strict ideological screening for all immigrants seeking entry to the United States. He announced the move back in October, amid Hamas' attack on Israel early that month. "No longer will we allow dangerous lunatics, haters, bigots and maniacs to get residency in our country," Trump told his supporters during a campaign event in Iowa at the time.
He warned that those who "empathize with radical Islamic terrorists and extremists," wish to "abolish the state of Israel" or "support Hamas," and the ideology behind it would be "disqualified" from potential citizenship. Communists, Marxists and fascists would likewise be disqualified, Trump added. The former president cited the Oct. 7 Hamas attack as a main factor behind his proposal, and his advocacy toward hardline immigration issues.
"The atrocities in Israel are a horrific reminder that immigration security is national security. The purpose of U.S. immigration law is not to protect the world – it's to protect the United States of America." Trump said. He continued that refusing to take in "anyone from Gaza, Syria, Somalia, Yemen, Libya or anywhere else that threatens [American] security" also counts as a form of support toward Israel.
The former president also promised to suspend refugee resettlement once more. He also pledged to reinstate a travel ban on predominantly Muslim countries he put in place during his term, with a planned expansion. Trump also vowed to proactively deploy Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents to address pro-jihadist demonstrations and remove immigration law violators from the country.
