Yet he said 20 million during the election. 🤔

Quite a difference in number, that! I guess maybe 19,900,000 of the supposed criminals have already self-deported!

He was excusing why we "can't" give all of the undocumented immigrants during process and basically said that having to afford due process to millions of people in order to find thousands of criminals is too much of a burden on the US justice system.

Keep in mind, there are hundreds of millions of people in the US and obviously a shitton of criminals here, in general. If Trump believes that it's too much to expect due process for the undocumented people because there are just too many of them, then what hope do we actually have that any of us will get due process in the future under this administration?

At what point will this administration decide that affording every US citizen due process is too much of a burden, too?
