Trump Says Fuck the Constitution, Literally.

Considering that deportation deprives the individual of neither life, nor liberty, nor property, application of the 5th is rather moot.
Since some of you nitwit MAGAtards can't even follow links to educate yourselves:

"Eventually, the Supreme Court extended these constitutional protections to all aliens within the United States, including those who entered unlawfully, declaring that aliens who have once passed through our gates, even illegally, may be expelled only after proceedings conforming to traditional standards of fairness encompassed in due process of law.3 The Court reasoned that aliens physically present in the United States, regardless of their legal status, are recognized as persons guaranteed due process of law by the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments.4 Thus, the Court determined, [e]ven one whose presence in this country is unlawful, involuntary, or transitory is entitled to that constitutional protection.5 Accordingly, notwithstanding Congress’s indisputably broad power to regulate immigration, fundamental due process requirements notably constrained that power with respect to aliens within the territorial jurisdiction of the United States.6"

To be deported is to be deprived of the liberty to simply remain where you are.
 
I can’t wait to see which Republican is first to say that tbe President doesn’t have to support and defend the Constitution
 
No it wouldn't. Call the cops, haul their ass off. Simple.
But I have the right to contest that, if I can make any case at all that the land belongs to me, or that I have permission from the owner, or that I otherwise have a right to be here. That's due process.
 
Guessing this was a rhetorical question as a tyrannical government makes it obvious why it is still valid and necessary.
Well, someone got it. How many people who swore the oath still hold it dear? Maybe the "Oath Keepers" should speak up again?
