The idea of a comprehensive strategy behind these comments is certainly intriguing.

Despite plans for a large-scale deportation operation, the incoming Trump administration is avoiding the term “camps” to describe the necessary detention facilities, fearing negative historical comparisons and the perception of extremism. While top advisor Stephen Miller previously used the term, the administration now recognizes the potentially damaging optics of such language.
