    So to my understanding Trump is proposing deportation as a means of punishment for violent crimes?

    Obviously problematic, especially considering the lack of due process present in some other deportations.

      SCOTUS already wrote him a blank check and demonstrated that defying the law has no consequences (for Trump). No one is going to save us.

      Remember all those videos of police screaming “Stop Resisting” at people who very clearly weren’t resisting? Congratulations, you’re now a violent criminal.

      He is proposing exile. Deportation is to send someone back to their country of origin. They’re already in America.

        In exile you are unwillingly sent somewhere you don’t want to go with the understanding that you can’t come back but nobody gives a fuck where else you go. We are shipping people to a prison you are liable to die in and to war torn hell holes. We are trying to kill people without overt gas chambers.
