This you?
How do you think either Harris or Trump would achieve mass deportations and genocide without dictatorial powers?
Please explain the legal mechanism.
This should be good.
Sure. See the bill introduced by the Biden administration for exact details on that. Trump aligned Republicans stopped it from getting passed, as it would have removed he entirety of Trump's immigration platform.
If it did, you can explain the legal mechanism for mass deportations and genocide without dictatorial powers.
Please do so.
Sure, cops receive orders to arrest and hand over to ice anyone without id that is likely not a citizen. They have a legal requirement to do so via the bill. They do, ice them deports them with minimal safeguards. Lawsuits to stop that takes decades because it's a legal act of Congress legally enforced by police at multiple levels of government.
None of this requires a single party dictatorship. It is pathetic you cannot understand this, and it is extra pathetic you decided to ban me from the subs you moderate because you lost this discussion.
Sorry, local cops cannot have a legal requirement to do that. That would only be possible in a dictatorship.
I'm starting to think you're not in the U.S. based on the things you're saying.
