“What we are going to do is get
the people that are criminal and have criminal records, gang members, drug
dealers, where a lot of these people, probably two million, it could be even
three million — we are getting them out of our country or we are going to
incarcerate,” Trump said in an excerpt released ahead of broadcast by CBS’s 60
Minutes program.
The billionaire real estate baron
made security at the US-Mexico border a central plank of his insurgent
presidential campaign, which resulted in last Tuesday’s shock election victory
against his Democratic rival Hillary Clinton.
Trump added that the barrier to
be erected on the US border with Mexico may not consist entirely of brick and
mortar, but that fencing could be used in some areas.
“There could be some fencing,”
Trump says in his first primetime interview since being elected president last
week.
“But (for) certain areas, a wall
is more appropriate. I’m very good at this, it’s called construction,” he tells
CBS.
