Trump Attacks the Supreme Court, Says America 'Cannot Give Everyone a Trial'
Donald Trump attacked the Supreme Court for blocking his latest deportations while dismissing immigrants’ constitutional right to due process.
Sixth Amendment
In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defence.

Oh that pesky US Constitution is in the way again.
don't forget the Seventh amendment - civil trials where the value at question is more than $20 you always have the right to a jury trail.
Not to mention the fifth and fourteenth amendments.
Oh it’s just that simple hey? Fuck this guys a moron.
Weird how the man with a laundry list of convictions to his name suddenly no longer believes in the whole "innocent until proven guilty" thing.
He believes in "innocent after proven guilty"
"Innocent after proven guilty" for him, "guilty without proof" for a everyone else.
As long as we're skipping trials, let's go ahead and find Donald guilty of treason.
That would take a trial. Let’s go straight to execution.
“We cannot give everyone a trial, because to do so would take, without exaggeration, 200 years,” he wrote. “We would need hundreds of thousands of trials for the hundreds of thousands of Illegals we are sending out of the Country. Such a thing is not possible to do. What a ridiculous situation we are in.”
I’ve noticed that Trump often does identify real issues. That’s what allows him to pitch insane, half-baked, and cruel solutions so successfully.
We haven’t had sufficient funding for processing asylum claims for decades upon decades, and the process itself is outdated, slow, and ineffective for the country and migrant alike.
We should be fixing that, instead of outsourcing death camps. But “doing paperwork better” is a pretty underwhelming pitch.
Agreed, in a lot of ways he is a response to the failure to solve real problems that have plagued us for years. Of course none of his solutions will work if they are even coherent. But a lot of people realise that the status quo can't or won't do anything so they decide to give a strongman a chance.
It's the same with the US paying more than its fair share of the NATO budget he likes to harp on about.
He's right about that; however we do get a lot back from that in other ways that aren't directly tied to budget support, not to mention the goodwill of the countries that are actually on the frontlines fighting wars, unlike America right now.
Like, pulling out of NATO is not the solution to the other countries not paying their "fair share", nor is forcing tariffs on the world because you don't understand what a trade deficit is because you apparently bonespurred your way out of college too.
NATO is a critical effort that should not be hampered by which countries have what amounts of money to put in, but in the desire to stand united against truly great evil rising again like it did in 1914 and 1939. Everyone helps out in the ways they can best do it. European countries are literally on the frontlines of our current proxy wars and need our help to keep it from spilling over elsewhere. Because if that happens, the nickles and dimes we're spending on NATO above everyone else will seem like chump change.
“We cannot do the thing we have been doing for 250 fucking years”
I cannot wait for this lecherous, odorous sack of bile to kick the bucket.
Giving everyone a trial is the literal definition of what the US stands for.
I hate Trump and MAGA. They are complete idiots. Just divide the country and let them go be Russia 2.0 until they eventually collapse.
If that is the case then it is time to fold up shop and start anew. Our system is broken and that is the onlyplus side of Trump. He is magnifying the holes.
Except that's exactly what Musk, Thiel, Zuckerberg, Bezos, Andressen, Yarvin and the Trump regime want. I think the system is good. I think the people need to exercise their rights to Checks and balances.
Can and will. I can't wait for yours. And, frankly, you should feel lucky to get one.
So let's prioritize, Donny. Those with more felonies and broken laws go first, since they're the main thugs society should focus on. Deal?
This is the point where you should depose Trump.
The Trump administration really is all about taking the mile where the Bush administration was given an inch.
Hmm... Maybe instead of recruiting high school kids to go die in land grab wars the government should be recruiting them to become lawyers and legal clerks. Don't wait for the upper class to produce educated literate people; the upper class don't produce many kids because it's far more profitable to park money into the stock market than to spend it raising children. Not enough educated literate kids? Pay educators more. Teaching should not be a fallback afterthought.
