He was asked about it directly by reporters, sending US citizens to El Salvadorian prisons. He said he wanted to and there have been multiple confirmations that the White House is exploring this.
Sure. They’re cowards

My guy, the fact that you can’t have a friendly discussion without immediately down voting every response indicates that someguy3 is probably right
It’s not an accident that in an era where every single part of the US budget is being gutted (or likely to be gutted before all of this is over with), the Pentagon received an enormous increase. The MIC runs the US. If the CEO of Lockheed Martin makes a call to Trump, you had better believe Trump listens closely.
Regardless of how you may feel about it, that’s how the governments of most other Western countries saw it. This is evidenced by US bases all over the world, low investment in national defense by most NATO countries, the dollar being the world’s primary reserve currency, etc.
The diminishment of global influence and power is not because of those things, but because of domestic affairs: in the richest country in history, businesses broke the social contract with workers, the cost of health care skyrocketed as hospitals became for-profit business, and half the country was too brainwashed by consolidated media conglomerates to see what was really happening.
Basically, the libertarian values that have always been the underpinnings of American society finally reached their apotheosis at the same time the Internet and propagandist entertainment news caused the cultural fabric of society that had formerly acted as a counterweight to begin to unravel. Every man for themselves writ large. The chickens came home to roost.
You’ve got to imagine that if the US somehow got into a shooting war with a country they had previously sold arms to, and it were possible to remotely disable their aircraft, that someone in the MIC would say, “Hold on. If we use this kill switch, the world will see it and literally no countries will ever buy weapons from us again.”
As a side note, can you imagine being an accountant and trying to keep track of the tariff declarations that are changing daily?
It’s a white supremacist party. This is what happens when you elect the party of white supremacy.
Unless the immigration lawyer in question is on parole as the letter stipulated, it’s either a mistake, a malicious fake, or a malicious effort by the administration to provoke self-deportation with a wide net.
International depression. That’s what’s next.
This is true for every McKinsey type.
That’s good to hear. I hope he dies.
If he comes back, he’ll talk. And it won’t be good.
Summary: Democrats are doing nothing about stopping the flow of funds to Israel after increasingly brazen massacres of unarmed civilians and other war crimes.
Lazy thinking.

Regardless of what happened later, these were good things that benefited normal citizens.
It’s a factor.
Edit: You know what? I’m wrong, at least according to Nintendo.
As far as I can tell, he’s mad that Republicans and Democrats worked together to produce bipartisan legislation.
