Trump: "A young lady -- 10 year old girl, 9 year old girl, 15 year old girl -- doesn't need 37 dolls. She could be very happy with 2 or 3 or 4 or 5."

I don't really care what the "political consequences" are of fighting for the proposition that *everyone* is entitled to due process before they are removed from the United States and sent to a Salvadoran prison.
It's not really a principle if you only adhere to it when it's politically expedient.
