He praised Time magazine \u2064for featuring him and addressed\u2062 key topics, including immigration policies and abortion regulations. Trump affirmed \u2064his \u2062intent to \u200ddelegate abortion decisions to states \u2064and hinted at controversial \u2064strategies if\u2064 reelected.

A spokeswoman for <em>Time<\/em> confirmed that the March 1, 2009, issues were not real issues from the news company and asked the Trump Organization for the issues to be taken down. <\/p>\n<p>Now, the <a href=\"https:\/\/time.com\/6972021\/donald-trump-2024-election-interview\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title><a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/not-a-fan-trump-blasts-meghan-markle-for-royal-family-racism-claims-mocks-her-rumored-presidential-run\/\" title=\"\u2018Not A Fan\u2019: Trump Blasts Meghan Markle For Royal Family Racism Claims, Mocks Her Rumored Presidential Run\">wide-ranging interview<\/a><\/a> at Trump\u2019s Mar-a-Lago residence on April 12 touched on how Trump would handle the growing surge of immigrants entering the U.S. illegally, the aftermath of the 2020 election, and what actions he would take to limit access to abortion.<\/p>\n<p>On immigration, Trump said he would reimplement the Remain in Mexico program, Title 42, and begin a massive deportation operation to move over 11 million people in the U.S. The deportation program would rely on the National Guard and law enforcement rounding up immigrants who were illegally living in the U.S. <\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/election-2024\/?utm_source=homepage&#038;utm_medium=banner&#038;utm_campaign=iowa_caucus&#038;utm_id=election2024\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ELECTION 2024: FOLLOW LATEST COVERAGE<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Trump appeared willing to override the Posse Comitatus Act, which prohibits the military from being deployed against civilians. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, these aren\u2019t civilians,\u201d Trump said. \u201cThese are people that aren\u2019t legally in our country.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Other advisers in Trump\u2019s orbit echoed the former president\u2019s sentiments in interviews with <em>Time.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeople need to be deported,\u201d said Tom Homan, former acting head of Immigration and Customs Enforcement. \u201cNo one should be off the table.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure><\/figure>\n<p>On the matter of abortion, the former president reiterated his stance that abortion access should be left to states in the wake of <em>Roe v. Wade<\/em> being overturned.<\/p>\n<p>Trump did not answer questions about whether he would sign a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/democrats-upset-over-roe-among-the-least-likely-to-vote-in-midterms\/\" title=\"Democrats Upset Over Roe Among the Least Likely to Vote in Midterms\">federal abortion ban<\/a>, a stance that many people do not support, polls show.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s irrelevant whether I\u2019m comfortable or not,\u201d Trump said when <em>Time<\/em> asked if he would be comfortable with states prosecuting women over getting an abortion beyond the law. \u201cIt\u2019s totally irrelevant, because the states are going to make those decisions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The former president remained elusive on whether he would support legislation championed by anti-abortion allies, including the Life at Conception Act. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t have to do anything about vetoes,\u201d Trump said when asked if he would veto the legislation. \u201cBecause we now have it back in the states.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Trump was asked, \u201cDo you think states should monitor women\u2019s pregnancies so they can know if they\u2019ve gotten an abortion after the ban?\u201d His answer was equivocal. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think they might do that. Again, you\u2019ll have to speak to the individual states,\u201d he replied. <\/p>\n<p>Abortion has remained a political cudgel for the GOP in recent elections that Trump has sought to neutralize by claiming the matter is now in the hands of states. While anti-abortion advocates have publicly disagreed with Trump\u2019s stance, they remain staunchly behind Trump.<\/p>\n<p>The Biden campaign, however, is seeking to make the 2024 election a referendum on Trump\u2019s history on abortion. Mere hours after the <em>Time<\/em> interview was released, Biden\u2019s campaign was out with a statement slamming Trump. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cDonald Trump\u2019s latest comments leave little doubt: If elected he\u2019ll sign a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/mcconnell-claims-a-national-abortion-ban-is-possible-if-roe-v-wade-is-overturned\/\" title=\"McConnell Claims A National Abortion Ban Is \u2018Possible\u2019 If Roe V. Wade Is Overturned\">national abortion ban<\/a>, allow women who have an abortion to be prosecuted and punished, allow the government to invade women\u2019s privacy to monitor their pregnancies, and put IVF and contraception in jeopardy nationwide,\u201d campaign manager Julie Chavez Rodriguez said.<\/p>\n<p>A second Trump term would likely revamp how presidents interact with the Justice Department.<\/p>\n<p>Trump claimed he could fire U.S. attorneys who refuse to cooperate with his directions to prosecute a person he wants to be prosecuted.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt would depend on the situation,\u201d Trump said.<\/p>\n<p>Trump appeared unwilling to say directly he would fire Fani Willis, a district attorney in Fulton County, Georgia, and Alvin Bragg, a district attorney in Manhattan, New York, who have both charged Trump since he left office.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, we\u2019re gonna look at a lot of things like they\u2019re looking. What they\u2019ve done is a terrible thing. No, I don\u2019t want to do that,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n<p>He was also somewhat coy on whether he would appoint a special prosecutor to go after Biden. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, it depends what happens with the Supreme Court,\u201d Trump said. \u201cLook, a president should have immunity. That includes Biden. If they\u2019ve ruled that they don\u2019t have immunity, Biden, probably nothing to do with me, he would be prosecuted for 20 different acts.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>The Supreme Court is weighing arguments from Trump\u2019s legal team that presidents are entitled to immunity from prosecution after leaving office. The former president is facing 88 criminal charges across four criminal cases. <\/p>\n<p>Two of those cases, one from Willis and the other from special counsel Jack Smith, deal with allegations Trump attempted to overturn the results of the 2020 election and the subsequent Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot.<\/p>\n<p>Trump is in court in New York for one of these cases, the Bragg case, stemming from a hush money payment scheme to a porn actress during the 2016 election.<\/p>\n<p>Trump\u2019s supporters have claimed these charges are election interference and embraced Trump\u2019s air of grievance. The former president has, in turn, shown support for those who were convicted during the riot.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER<\/a><\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI call them the J-6 patriots,\u201d Trump said.
