I hate to say it, but "75% of the deported have no criminal record" is more convincing to the normie mind than "without habeas corpus we can all be snatched". Don't overthink it, the civil rights movement made heavy use of "sympathetic victims".

I see people comparing Trump to 1700s mercantilists. That’s not quite right. Even 18th century mercantilists knew that if you were trying to use tariffs to boost your trade surplus, you wanted to tax imports of finished goods, not the inputs www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/tru...
