I think he's banking on not being out of office in 4 years. Also I don't think he's making the labour market worse, haven't deportations been roughly at the same level as past administrations when we actually drill down into the numbers? What he is doing differently is targeting protestors of U.S. foreign (and probably soon domestic) policy with his deportations, which is simply abhorrent, not to mention possibly illegal. But it remains to be seen if these measures will actually harm the economy, or (by suppressing criticism) actually strengthen his administration. It's a move out of the fascist playbook, and fascist economics aren't necessarily bad for the economy (except when they're overthrown or defeated). I highly doubt we'll see the U.S. defeated in conventional warfare any time soon, so if he manages to extend his seat as fuhrer, I think his deposal will only be possible internally.
