WASHINGTON – Donald Trump will keep his vow to deport millions of undocumented migrants from the United States, he said in an interview to be broadcast Sunday, saying as many as three million could be removed after he takes office
"**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 reported Agence France-Presse.

"They're bringing drugs, they're bringing crime, they're rapists," Trump said of undocumented Mexican immigrants while announcing his candidacy last June according to [WJLA] (http://wjla.com/news/local/citizenship-surge-due-to-immigration-controversy).
This 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.

"Restore integrity to our immigration system by prioritizing the interests of Americans first. Enforce our immigration laws – at the border and at the workplace. Build a border wall and end sanctuary cities. Send criminal aliens home. Welcome those who embrace our way of life, but keep out immigrants and refugees who don't through rigorous vetting," added Trump.
