Seriously how long until the death camps?

If the fears of Trump as this Hitleresque figure and the actions he is taking are a sign of something more harrowing to come, how long until the first death camps open up and targeted groups are forcibly moved?

detention camps.
Depending on the circumstances, such death(s) could cause a large(r) revulsion to the camps than currently and bring these horrors front and center to public attention.

these deaths with the personal story involved with each death.
Perhaps the drip-drip-drip, especially as these problems become larger numerically, will have an effect.

It is called sending people to jail for drug related crimes. Ends up being a life sentence.

There will be no death camps. If you believe otherwise, seek help from mental health professionals.
