Let me break this down:

Openly defying court orders multiple times= dictatorship Threatening to jail political opponents despite them being pardoned= dictatorship Deporting American citizens who have legal citizenship= dictatorship Can’t put it any simpler.

    Glad you can see it that way. Even your average liberal agrees that deporting violent criminals is a good idea – what we oppose is the idea that the government can accuse anyone of being a violent criminal without evidence, punish them without scrutiny, and even make them disappear.

      makes sense. So it is partly BECAUSE the people are accused of gang and hezbolah affiliation that it is extra controversial instead of being less controversial; with the reason being lack of evidence and fair trial, and that that shouldnt even start to be ok
