Brown embraced Trump’s extreme plans for mass deportations, refuses to stand up for thousands of Nevada Dreamers
MAGA extremist Sam Brown is in the national spotlight for refusing to answer questions about his support for Donald Trump’s extreme mass deportation plan that even Trump himself admitted could be “bloody.”
Brown has also refused to answer whether or not he supports the DACA program, continuing his long record of using immigration as a political football and confirming that he will always put partisan politics ahead of doing what’s right for Nevada.
Earlier this year, Brown publicly opposed the Bipartisan Border Security Deal before the text of the bill was even released. Even after the text of the bipartisan bill was released, Brown immediately doubled down on opposing the widely supported plan – even though he was going against the Border Patrol Union, who supported the deal.

HuffPost: Republicans Duck Questions About Trump’s Plan For Mass Deportations

Key Points:
- Donald Trump’s militaristic plan to deport as many as 20 million undocumented immigrants would tear apart families, likely cost hundreds of billions of dollars, harm the economy, and raise all sorts of constitutional, humanitarian and logistical problems.
- But ask Republican lawmakers and candidates about the particulars of what could be a “bloody story,” as the GOP presidential nominee himself acknowledged last month, and they quickly shift the subject or downplay its implications, a sign of how eager they are to exploit their advantage on immigration issues against Democrats without actually owning up to the extremeness of what their party’s leader is proposing.
- “That’s a very big logistical undertaking,” Nevada Republican Sam Brown said Thursday in a debate with Sen. Jacky Rosen (D) when asked if he supported the proposal.
- “How would that happen? Who would get caught in that? How many innocent people would get rounded up?” she asked on Thursday, pushing for passage of the bipartisan border security bill that Republicans had blocked on orders from Trump earlier this year. Brown let her questions pass without a response.
