Summary

Donald Trump threatened to send American citizens convicted of vandalizing Tesla vehicles to El Salvador’s infamous Terrorism Confinement Center, labeling the vandals as “sick terrorist thugs” deserving 20-year sentences.

This statement followed a major vandalism incident in Ontario, Canada, where around 80 Tesla cars were damaged.

Trump’s comments coincide with controversy over his use of the 1798 Alien Enemies Act to deport migrants, halted by a court order.

The White House defended the deportation despite legal challenges, denying any violation of the court’s injunction.

    I’m pessimistic about a lot of what people say Trump can’t do, but he definitely can’t do this one.

    Edit: that’s enough of this community. Y’all are way worse than even the politics and tanky subs on Reddit. Jesus, y’all need some help. Count me as another ally you threw away because you can’t see past your own ignorance.

      LOL if you think this way then you were never an ally.

          If your support was conditional, then it was insincere. I don’t know what group you think you belong to, but you were never one of “us.” If you would like to be, you can make a good start by growing enough backbone to stand by whatever morals you have instead of “being an ally” and then “not an ally anymore” depending on whatever shit people say to you.
