WildRose:

That isn’t by any stretch "hardline’.

It is if were talking about legislation that stands a chance of passing.

This is what we wanted, someone as President who has absolutely no idea about how government works.

We’ve used landmines before. Why aren’t we allowed to do that now?

We could also livestream it and make for some must-watch-tv.

When is congress going to stand up to this oaf and protect the constitution something they all swore to uphold. My God…You guys thought OBAMA was bad. This is twice now he has vowed to violate people’s due process rights. The very thing that made America Great. DUE PROCESS. You couldn’t just be put in jail because the crown didn’t like you. DUE PROCESS where you were give the right to procedural protections from the law under the law. Why is everyone afraid of this ass clown?

Their very definition of Washington OUTSIDER I guess.

We could have mothers bring their babies to hold up with glee too.

That is brilliant! Kind of like the movie Running Man but with illegal aliens instead of prisoners.

I’m thinking The Long Walk would make for an excellent immigration process.

Lava moat filled with fireproof crocodiles.

But how are we going to pay for that?

You know it’s getting bad when there are legitimate comparisons between the POTUS and absurd movie caricatures. They could rewrite Austin Powers and have every one of Dr Evil’s lines be copied from things Trump said in real life and the movie would still work.

Trump protecting the border from this culture of lawlessness is making him more popular.

I’m not use, why if you walk across the border you deserve to stay, be fed, and get housed until you get a trial. Does a burglar get to stay in your home until the trial? We’ll call ya!..

Policy is built on trends not cases. Nobody from Guatemala is eligible for asylum.

tnt · 2018-06-25T19:13:22.204Z

lol. You wish.

Sorry, but the law says you are wrong. Furthermore, the constitution says you - or trump - can’t make that determination without due process.

WuWei · 2018-06-25T19:14:24.144Z

Does it? Can you quote it?

MoleUK:

The Imperial Presidency I heard so much about during the Obama years finally emerges .

I’m sure those conservatives that objected to such behaviour will rush forward in condemnation.

What you totally ignore is our federal government is specifically granted power “To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions”;

Considering we have an ongoing invasion of our borders, with approximately 22 million illegal entrants now in the United States who are causing social and financial mayhem, and our President has emergency powers to act when our country is being invaded and the general welfare of our country is in peril, I believe it is well within the President’s powers to put an end to this invasion at our borders and have our National Guard or Marines physically prevent these foreigners from setting foot on American soil.

There is no better way to weaken, destroy and subjugate a prosperous and freedom loving country than by importing the world’s poverty stricken populations into that country and making the country’s existing citizens tax-slaves to support the economic needs of such an invasion.

Somehow, johnwk’s legal arguments are getting loonier.

According to this link 2325 Guatemalans were granted asylum in the US in 2016.

John, we all know your routine by now. You quote secondary sources as if they are Supreme Court rules—as well as overturned, century-old rulings, as well as dicta.

You don’t even understand the plain wording of an amendment that explains how our taxing works.

You’re content to be wrong on a variety of legal issues, somehow believing that repetition will change reality.

Decades later, how is this strategy working out for you?
