Trump Doesn't Know if He Has to Uphold the Constitution Because He's Not a Lawyer

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

Why obammy neglected to follow the so called constitutional issue you OP'd?

It's still cracks me up on how some of you in here can't follow your own OPs. wow.

You didn't specify any specific Constitutional issue, just the "he did it too" defense.

 

[Edgetho]

Due process was NOT invented by our judiciary silly one....

It is a foundation of a free Nation and a cornerstone of Democracy, written in to our CONSTITUTION by the founders in the 5th and the writers of the 14th A. later on.

You are correct, of course. I didn't explain myself properly. I meant the expansion of due process into the monstrosity it is today. Witht the Judiciary trying to interfere in Foreign Policy and Executive Functions in general

Good catch, I need to be more careful.

your own mthr fking OP stated due process. the whole entirety of this OP is to mock the fact that trump declined to answer about due process. right?

Well bro, neither did obammy and BTW, you fking ignored it.

So you can't provide an example; you're just operating as programmed.

Glad we cleared that up. Have a nice day.

You can tell by his inability to follow the law.

I don't think he's unable, it's more that he believes he doesn't have to, you know "make me" and him believing nobody can SINCE SCOTUS removed all consequences his lawlessness & misbehavior. Now even they are on the receiving end of his belligerence.

I gave you that obammy ignored due process, why did you ignore it?

The fact is is that due process isn't the same between illegal and legal. just isn't, show me where it says it is!

 

[MarcATL]

He didn't say what you think he said. We can have judges working around the clock signing deportation orders and those that would block them will be fired. That is exactly how this is going to go, and it's for the betterment of America. These circuit judges will be lucky to be around by the end of May, 2025.

The House will make it so. Hopefully starting today. They will get on board or gtfo the way, I'll tell you that.

What did he say?

So you guys don't think there is Administrative Due process for Civil Immigration enforcement, which is a thing. Or that there is no Due Process for illegals in that they can be scoped up, flowing in the dead of night and imprisioned in a 3rd world country Human Storage Facility indefinately without Due Processs, access to the courts, and habeas corpus proceedings.

Criminal Due Process is what "WW" was talking about in terms of locking away people without access to the courts and the government being requried to prove their claims.s

You should be ashamed.

I believe in due process. And I believe even illegal aliens get due process. But the question is always “what process is due?”

In the case of criminal matters, even an illegal alien gets full due process, just as citizen’s get.

In an administrative setting, illegal aliens get only a minimal amount of due process rights.

Maybe instead of misstating my opinion, you can consider them as I have stated them. And don’t tell us we should feel ashamed. I’m never ashamed of speaking the truth.

Consider one example: illegal alien wannabe arrives at the US border, crosses it and is immediately captured by Border Security. Are YOU claiming that by virtue of merely making it on to US soil, the illegal immmigrant can demand anything more than questioning by a border security officer? He can’t be immediately tossed back over our border to wherever he came from?

 

[NewsVine_Mariyam]

So, you're pissing and moaning because he admits he's not a lawyer, so relies on the DOJ....

So is he a liar or incompetent? Or mentally defective I guess could be a third option.

The due process I was referring to that Rawley dismisses is the scooping up people in the dead of night, transporting to a 3rd world country and putting them in prison as US taxpayer expense, not right to counsel, not right to a challenge the statement against them - just handcuffed and shipped off.

No I'm fine with that.

However under US law if they request asylum, then they are due a hearing on the asylum claim. At least that is the law that Congress - the legislative branch - created. Once that the President is bound to follow.

He can’t be immediately tossed back over our border to wherever he came from?

Barring an asylum request, expedited removal is after following administrative due process and procedures is just hunky-dory with me.

We should be deporting MORE illegals and going after business that illegally employ them.

A series ^ of false choices. Typical of your posting style.

Asylum isn’t the topic. Illegally crossing the border is.

And, not for nothin’, but there is also a proper procedure for seeking asylum. Maybe the illegal alien could consider obeying our laws.

Where did he lie in that statement?

Of course, not issue with that. But the Congress has said you DON'T have to enter at a border crossing and request asylum. On that you have to be present in the US.

Which is kind of a Catch-22. So the language and intent of that needs to be tightened up.

I'm assuming (<<-- opinion) that the intent may have been for someone here legally who after the fact needs to request aslyum. For example someone on a student visa and war breaks out while they are here.

But as it stands right now, someone can be here illegally and then request asylum within a specified period.

You keep posting about conservatives being programmed.
That's not how it works over here on the right.
Thanks for the PROJECTION, though.

You're wasting your time with that narcissist

For those of us who appreciate the facts....
Trump did not explicitly state that he doesn't have to follow the constitution. He said I don't know because he has brilliant lawyers that work for him, and they are going to obviously follow what the Supreme Court said. He never said that he is exempt from following the law.
Many seem to be taking out of context what he did say during the NBC interview and are spinning for their own political agendas. So what else is new? It wouldn't be a day that ended in a "y" if they weren't attempting to revise what he did in fact say.

Trump says 'I don't know' when asked if he must uphold the Constitution

President Donald Trump said, "I don't know," when asked on NBC's "Meet the Press" whether he must uphold the Constitution to execute his deportation strategy.

well then so was obammy's. It's all I'm saying. Again, you seem to excuse that. ain't you something.

Keep squirming. Anything to avoid the topic, Trump's admitting that he doesn't know if the oath he took regarding the Constitution is something he takes seriously.
