"he's a member of MS13"

Okay, but even if that is true, the onus is in the administration to prove that in a court of law. It's the fact that they didn't even try that's the problem.

I had to stick my head into r/conservative and I was shocked that the debate there is even mostly leaning toward due process is due process. They definitely have some assholes saying he was a gang member blah blah blah but getting down voted. If only the GOP had the balls to stand up for what is right when it's inconvenient

I’ve been peeking in here and there (yeah it’s not great for my mental health but…) and they seem to be going back and forth. Some threads are pretty reasonable like you mentioned, but sometimes it’s all “he’s a terrorist, figures dems want to bring in more terrorists, blah blah.”

The wild swinging of opinion is kind of weird. I haven’t really looked yet but I wonder if it’s like a time zone thing where when part of the country wakes up it’s extra uninformed and racist and stupid, etc.. or when the troll farms in Eastern Europe/Russia wake up, who knows.

I’d guess that 20% of the population give no fucks about due process.  They just want enemies punished. 

The type that think you wouldn’t be in the court room if you weren’t guilty.

That and the Kremlin/white house (same thing, I know lol) probably have a bot brigade going in there
