[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, this seems like the least crazy thing he’s doing. People at the border can lawfully be expelled without a hearing. It gets more difficult when they’re on US soil. [/quote]

Agree. [b]Completely stopping the flow of undocumented immigrants crossing the southern border until Congress can pass sweeping immigration/asylum reform measures is something a majority of Americans support;[/b] especially in a post 9/11 American.

Snatching people off the streets in a widespread deportation agenda without being 100% sure they can be rightfully deported is not something Americans want to see and it's one of the many reasons smart people consider Trump and awful POTUS.[/quote]

Within legal means, maybe. Until Congress passes a bill authorizing using the military to do it, however, using the military to enforce border laws is blatantly illegal:

[quote]“Whoever, except in cases and under circumstances expressly authorized by the Constitution or Act of Congress, willfully uses any part of the Army or the Air Force as a posse comitatus or otherwise to execute the laws shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than two years, or both.”[/quote]

You're correct. Securing the border needs to done in a legal manner. The overwhelming majority of Americans want our borders to be secured in a legal and humane way. I would expect nothing less from Trump other than addressing an issue Americans want addressed but going about it in a manner that is in conflict with our laws, values or best interests.[/quote]
