I really hope he is still alive. Not sure why both Presidents are digging their heels in over this one individual. |
+1 Trump DGAF about the SCOTUS/laws/Constitution/ethics/etc. He thinks can do what TF he wants - because the GOP lets him. |
Probably because he’s already dead. |
I hope he's not, poor man. But I think this was meant as a big publicity stunt and it falls apart when you start bringing people back. There are many innocent Venezuelans who need to be brought back as well. |
Bc either he is dead or if he comes back, everyone would be lining up to hear about the gulag in El Salvador. Either way-the administration ends up looking even worse than they do now. |
And when he says no again, then what? |
He won't tell him no. If he actually asks. Crazy, isn't it? Bukele understands laws better than Trump does, than you do. |
They have confirmed he’s alive, and being held in prison because El Salvador wants him there. |
Because the United States wants him there. El Salvador wants him there only because they are being paid, not because they have charged him with anything or think he's a criminal or terrorist. |
Trump didn’t ask at all. |
Yes Trump has made the US weak and powerless. Bet Biden could have gotten back. |
Why did he need to ask if the President of El Salvador preempted the question by saying he wouldn't let him go? What you're really saying is that the Supreme Court ordered President Trump to ask - which it didn't - because that would be stepping on the President's Article II power to conduct foreign diplomacy. The Supreme Court was very careful in its order. All the judicial branch can do is order President Trump to "facilitate" his return, but that requires the President of El Salvador to release him. |
Did the DOJ update get filed today? |
El Salvador is not known for honesty and this administration has repeatedly lied to the American people. They have literally provided no independently verifiable evidence that he is alive. |
They aren’t. Everyone else is. They are literally lobbing this guy back and forth. |
