MAGA Twilight Zone

Donald Trump has, indeed, been busy issuing executive orders (142 during his first 100 days in office).

In response to a letter " The Trump Agenda ,"

(1) Donald Trump has, indeed, been busy issuing executive orders (142 during his first 100 days in office).This is more than George W. Bush or Barack Obama signed during their entire second terms. When Obama was president, Trump called executive orders "a power grab" and "a basic disaster." We are now asked to believe it's simply what "consequential" presidents do.

(2) Yes, undocumented immigrants are being deported, but so are legal immigrants and even U.S. citizens, all without due process. According to Trump (a self-proclaimed stable genius), "The courts have all of a sudden, out of nowhere, said maybe you have to have trials." The 5th Amendment to the Constitution guarantees due process and was ratified in 1791 as does the 14th Amendment, ratified in 1868!
