      I imagine this near future situation.

      -–

      Trump: “Everybody who ICE grabs is gonna be detained and deported.”

      Reporter: “How about if people are detained unlawfully?”

      Trump: “Doesn’t matter. Official act. All gone.” And he smacks his hands in the ‘all done’ gesture.

      Later

      Dems: “We fully support President Trump’s effort to deport illegal immigrants who commit crimes.”

      Reporter: “If Trump calls his actions ‘official acts’ he can lawfully detain and deport anyone. That is unjust. What do you have to say about that?”

      Dems: “The law must be obeyed.” Yet they don’t do the ‘all done’ gesture.

          I just gave myself a vomity feeling.

          I really wonder what people like Gavin Newsom will do. He clearly wants to be president so everything he does is planning for 2028. He’ll fight to stop Trump from creating camps in California. But he’ll want to be “tough” on crime and immigration. I guess he’ll make his own camps. Libs in the near future will be lecturing the world that Trump’s camps are bad but Newsom’s are necessary.
