'Throw the U.S. in a whirlwind': NY Times finds low-key Trump supporters have shared fear

Raw Story  

President-elect Donald Trump managed a narrow electoral victory in a sharply divided country — and it's unclear exactly what voters brought him in to do. In conversation with a New York Times focus group released on Tuesday, many voters who backed Trump specifically said he has a mandate to remove immigrants from the country. Trump, said Kentucky house cleaner Direnda, 66, has been elected to "get rid of all these immigrants that have come into major cities and have caused problems." Experts have suggested Trump is likely to enlist local sheriffs and volunteers in the process, and his advisers have considered illegally dumping people in countries they've never even visited if their home country won't agree to repatriate them.
