Wait, I thought you had to know how to read for this gig?

What’s he going do, harrass people who can actually afford a ticket to fly on an airplane nowadays? That will for sure make him popular.

If it gets them off our streets and somewhere with lots of cameras I’m not going to stop him.

Ice and irritated passengers probably won’t mix well
Glittering-Storm-651 on
Is he thinking about replacing the pilots with ICE agents ? Fill the whole ICE squad in there and let them take off 🤣

Because once you create a secret police force, you find all kinds of things to use them for.

Why don’t we send those “patriots” to Iran first???
NoReserve7293 on
If you don’t think it’s fucked enough, yeah send ICE.

With what funding?

“They are going to screen like we have never seen before”!
I hope they don’t assault travelers for forgetting to empty their pockets.
Who is going to train them or is it OJT.
NetStrange3395 on
ICE is already there.
ItsTimetoLANK on
IDK, is ICE capable of yelling “place your laptops in the basket” a thousand times an hour?
cozmckitty on
So he’s going to have them scab TSA jobs? this is such an incredibly horrible idea you know it came directly from Trump.

I was gonna say they aren’t trained for that work, but they aren’t trained for the work they’re already doing so… Half of one, six dozen of the other.

Let him do it. This will destroy the Airlines. People will suffer and maybe the deep pockets will recognize they lost control of their dog.

If it’s foreign oil, they gonnaa deport it all.

There are over 50,000 TSA agents. There are 22,000 total ICE agents.
Even disregarding putting these aggressive and untrained buffoons into a tourist facing role… the math is not mathing.

ICE at the immigrations checkpoint:
Non-American passport? Straight to jail.
American passport? Believe it or not, also jail.
We have the best citizens in the world. Because of jail.

I wonder if they’ll arrest me for my Fuck ICE shirt?

Lol, let’s see how airlines react to this one!

With the backgrounds of ice agents and minimal background checks youre going to see smuggling through airports skyrocket

To me the real takeaway from this statement is that Trump honestly does see ICE as his personal goon squad specifically meant to intimidate/harass/assault/kill his perceived enemies. In other words, his Nazi brownshirts.

Rednecks w/ guns at the airport…. that’ll go well
SwiftDB-1 on
PLEASE GOD, YES!
It would suck for those at the other end of the stick, because the fascists ALWAYS overreach and having Proud Boys with neck tatoos and Federal badges cracking skulls at airport security would go a long way toward preventing the same thing at the midterm polls. Give them enough rope to hang themselves.

Basically admitting he’s been using ICE as a threatening force (obviously he has been the whole time). Not that anyone will care though.
TragicallyDip on
The ICE Agents that aren’t trained to do their own job are now going to do other people’s jobs? Great idea. 👍
User4C4C4C on
If you think their lack of training was bad doing immigration enforcement, just wait until they aren’t trained to make the planes fly on time.
Terrapin621 on
I don’t know if having untrained thugs beat up travelers for fun is a good way to get the public on your side but what do I know
FunctionalGray on
Everybody should be contacting their representatives, employing them to call his bluff on this and let him do exactly that. This is a strategical error that will backfire spectacularly in showing the rest of the world exactly what has been going on in Minnesota. Oh wow if you think international tourism is bad right now in the United States just wait until he has masked agents harassing anybody even where near a shade of cappuccino trying to move around in the airport. Such an embarrassment.

Do it asshole

I guess when all you have is a wildly incompetent personal goon squad, every public policy obstacle starts to look like a brown person shopping at Home Depot.

I’m sure the last thing these dicks wanted was an actual job

Using ICE agents as a threat tells you he knows they’re goons.

Deploy them to Iran since they love to roleplay in their military gear so much
SIMT-Pixel on
For many, ICE is still a boogeyman that you only hear about. Expect mayhem to break lose at airports if people can now easily come face to face and give a piece of their mind to agents killing fellow citizens in the street.

Do it. People will see their travel times be 4x longer and hold that fuckstick accountable

Never interrupt your enemy when he’s making a huge mistake

While this is an absolute batshit idea, there is a level of karmic justice signing up to be the presidents personal henchman only to be made into an airport security guard 6 months in.

Kind of just further evidence he views ICE as his own private military rather than, ya know, an immigration task force..
