An MSNBC anchor has painted a dark picture of America’s future under Donald Trump, claiming the incoming president will “put people into camps”.
Speaking on Sky News podcast The World With David Engel and Yalda Hakim, the famously outspoken Rachel Maddow discussed her fears about what the new Republican government might look like. Maddow is one of MSNBC’s most prominent voices, and has a history of banging the gong for the Democrat party having championed Kamala Harris in the US election race.
When asked about her views on Trump during the interview, Maddow said: “I don’t see any evidence of moderation or ‘I didn’t mean it’ in Trump’s behaviour since the election.
“And I may be wrong – maybe he’s pounding his chest and this is just a show of force. But if you look at his nominees and you look at what he’s demanding of people from the government already, it’s everything he said he will do in his campaign.”
Then the MSNBC host went in hard on US’ president-elect, outlining how she thought the next four years might pan out with him in the White House.
“I expect we will see mass deportations,” she said. “ We will see millions of people in camps managed by the US military, there will be military raids in civilian areas to try to take on this extreme anti-immigrant agenda – which I think he means every word of.
“I think it’s the end of American participation in NATO in any meaningful sense. It’s really really bad news for Ukraine, it’s bad news for Taiwan. It’s a big leap towards the multi-polar world that Vladimir Putin has been dreaming of for some time.”
In response Sky host Engle said: “Oh my God – you’re anticipating the end of America as we know it!”
