I suspect you're being downvoted because your statement is interpreted as a both sides argument, but you are correct. The thing about up taking off guard rails is that they are taken off for whoever holds the power in the future. If this Trump administration policy is allowed to stand, there isn't anything stopping a future president, Democrat or Republican, from uncitizening political opponents and shuffling them off to a prison beyond the range of the press to observe or Congress to oversee.

It's extremely dangerous, a viper striking at the heel of the checks and balances against tyranny soaking this government.
