The thing is he could do nothing, and then tell his supporters, "I did it! I deported all the bad guys!" And they would cheer and say, "Wow everything is better now. We love Trump."
When you've convinced the people of a fake problem you can just give them a fake solution. "I scared away the monster under your bed."
Even if it gets worse, it's not like his supporters will ever make the connection.
Unfortunately both the voter and the politician are lying, they aren't trying to solve a problem, they want actual ethnic clensing. They don't want to see brown kids of any status legal or otherwise around schools. All there efforts are trying to kill non whites faster and increase white birth rates, while ethnicity clensing non whites. If you aren't aware of this, welcome to the thing the USA has been doing since 1776.
The first time they had grifters, this time they have ideologues. I'm morbidly curious how this will pan out, that sort uses violence to impose a reality that doesn't exist. It's an inherently unstable rejection of material existence. And if Trump dies, no one else around him can ride that buck under him, they do not have the charisma; they're creepy fucking weirdos. He got less votes this time, and several right wingers have already attempted to kill him, so his hold isn't as steady to begin with. My inner optimist is wondering if they may learn to regret what they bought.

I cringe every time someone describes Trump as charismatic. I know what you mean and I don't disagree with the sentiment, but the fact that there are people in this world who find his demeanor appealing will never be anything but horrific to me.
Most folks are extremely boring, I suspect the only reason I find him so acharismatic is cause I am autistic and can barely stand most people let alone a used car salesman. Actually ive met plenty of interesting used car salesmen, one of them actually restored and sold off old military vehicles he either bought from random folks or via auction.
I think this is the most likely solution. He knows that removing immigrants is bad for the economy, he just needs his racist supporters to believe that he is kicking them out.
Well there's your first problem.
