Trump's 'I Don't Know' Constitution Rejection

Donald Trump gave an interview where he outlined his plans for a second term, focusing heavily on immigration and law enforcement. He proposed mass deportations, potentially targeting anyone he deems undesirable, regardless of legal status. This would involve utilizing the military and local law enforcement, potentially exceeding the legal authority of the president. Trump emphasized a "law and order" approach, suggesting a crackdown on crime and an expansion of presidential power. He spoke of building large detention camps to house undocumented immigrants awaiting deportation. He also suggested ending birthright citizenship, a right guaranteed by the 14th Amendment, and reviving his travel ban targeting Muslim-majority countries. Furthermore, Trump suggested he would use the Justice Department to target political opponents and media outlets critical of him. He praised authoritarian leaders and expressed admiration for their ability to maintain control. He also questioned the necessity of due process for immigrants, suggesting a disregard for constitutional rights. The overall tone of the interview indicated a willingness to disregard legal constraints and expand executive power to implement his agenda. find the original article here: https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2025/05/05/yqjw-m05.html
