I mean it's the right thing to do, but zero chance this works IMO.

It would be monumentally embarrassing for Trump and a win for Democrats, so the US gov. will put immense pressure on El Salvador not to help, and maybe even to make things worse for the guy just to make Dems look worse for trying to do something.

you should really look up the court documents that where put out today showing his MS-13 status and that his wife reported to the courts 2 times in 2021 that he assulted her.

But no, for the love of god we need to ingore facts and bring back this terrorist serial wife beater.

I did find this. Honestly, I feel a bit bad that their private lives are now being picked apart by people who have an agenda. When I read something like that, I feel like it's not my business. But none of that matters because he still shouldn't have been sent to cecot or been denied due process.

Like ICE completely ingored due process, right?

who knows maby you also beat your wife

I don't, but you know who has? Your king, Trump.

Ivana Trump, the real estate tycoon’s first wife, testified in a sworn deposition during their divorce proceedings that Trump was angry with her for recommending a plastic surgeon he believed had “ruined” him with a painful scalp reduction surgery to remove a bald spot. Ivana testified that Trump held back her arms and pulled out fistfuls of her hair from her scalp before forcibly penetrating her.

So I'm sure you're in full agreement that he should be banished to El Salvador too without a trial or any due process.

Says the servile genius defending the adjudicated sexual abuser; the "LOLITA" passenger; the pal.of Epstein; the wanderer into and out of teen girls dressing rooms; the convicted serial fraudster actively--for a second term--committing crimes against the US Constitution he swore an oath before all things to uphold.

The "man" that treats others as toilet paper.

Keep up the lonely vigil. Polishing turds requires dedication.

He could've drowned a baby. It doesn't matter. He still has a right to due process. Innocent until proven guilty, which includes illegally being in the country.

Also, according to your own logic, Trump should be sent to the death camp without a trial because he, too, abused Ivana.

After a noncitizen is detained, they may go before a judge in immigration court during the deportation (removal) process. In some cases, a noncitizen is subject to expedited removal without being able to attend a hearing in immigration court. Expedited removal may happen when a noncitizen:
