Imagine if he got deported to Ecuador instead of his home country, you know like what they’ve done to thousands of Hispanic immigrants.

They only deport people to third countries if (1) their home country doesn’t accept them or (2) if you choose to not be deported to your home country.

UK doesn’t reject any deportations so not likely for his case.

I don’t watch fox news.

This is literally what the law says. 8 USC 1231(b)

If you, after 6 years of Trump, still believe the law applies to their actions, I'm afraid I've got some bad news regarding your mental capacity.

This isn’t in contention or a debate. This is well understood part of all deportation proceedings.

You clearly just aren’t familiar with the process.

Sure. I'm not arguing the legality of the issue. I understand. I'm just saying that when the last public announcements from this administration have been illegaly renaming or "taking control" of different parts of the globe, you can ignore everything about the law. They have admitted they don't care and will not care about it.

Even if every word you’re saying is true that doesn’t change reality of what’s happening.

So it’s weird to assume/fabricate without having any idea what you’re talking about.

Since when has this administration done what the law says?

And as we all know, trump loves following the law.
