Due Process is super important, people.
Like seriously important.
Without Due Process the rest of your rights could be taken away just like that.
In fact, it’s one of the main reasons the ACLU actually agreed with Trump (shortly before Hell froze over) when he removed a regulation Obama had placed on gun owners regarding mental health; it’s also why so many keep fighting against using the no-fly list to ban firearms.
Repeat after us.
Due Process.
Know it.
Live it.
Love it.
Constitutionally speaking “due process second” is a bit like “I’ll put the condom on after.”

Huh, Jonah might be onto something here.
Why do we arrest people and put them in jail before trials? We already put due process second.
— Scott Adams (@ScottAdamsSays) March 1, 2018
Ummm.
Because the police have provided plausible evidence before a judge that a person committed a crime. In the context of Trump’s remarks, he wants to skip even that step.

Terrifying.
We can impeach him now and have Senate hearings later. Or whenever they get around to it.

He’s right you know.
In Flyoveria we say that the cow is out of the barn.

Learn something new every day.
Heh.

At that point why bother? Right?
Like Jonah’s colorful analogy.
Yup, it’s PERFECT.
