It wasn't necessarily what the orange idiot did, but rather the SCOTUS.
They not only sided with Trump on allowing him to use a WARTIME rule to deport Venezuelans without having to prove they are actually a threat to the country, but they also slowed down the return of an innocent man Trump deported to his gulag in El Salvador, a man the Trump Administration has already said was innocent of any wrongdoing.
With the 5-4 ruling that allows the 1798 Alien and Insurrection Act to be used, the court did say there has to be a basic legal review before the people can be deported but the parameters they put in place are vague, lack clear definition on what court an individual can appeal to, and this rule will likely be ignored by Trump.
There is not a chance in hell the same 5 justices would've EVER ruled this way with any other president.
This is a dark day in America. The SCOTUS has basically signed off, again, on the idea that Trump is a king. This one ruling will lead to insane abuses of power. It's tragic how few Republicans in this country are willing to do anything to leash in this madness.
If a Democratic president would have tried anything 1/100th as brash as Trump has, at least a third of the elected Republican officials would be openly carrying assault weapons at the Capitol, calling on their supporters to make encampments outside of DC to eventually storm the White House.
Meanwhile, a third of the Democratic party continues to capitulate to the Right...
