    My MAGA friend just said due process is only for citizens. I stopped trying to debate with him, he’s too far gone. I’m depressed about it.

      Very disappointing. How does he say he’s expected to prove that he’s a citizen without due process? I’ve been wondering.

        Unconditional trust in the MAGA authorities, plus unconditional disdain for all other authorities (trumps convictions are unjust politically motivated prosecution, he did nothing wrong). He turned his brain off years ago and just lets fox news think for him.

          He doesn’t actually have an answer? Even more disappointing.

          “What if a socialist demonrat accused you of being a noncitizen? How would you prove them wrong?”

        Couldn’t answer coherently. Comfortably safe as the in group, confident that the others deserve their punishment.
