Sure but you don’t have to be an asshole about it and deprive people of civil and moral rights.

But deporting families and nonviolent people who have been here, tolerated for decades and contributing to society, is not "Protecting America".

What is telling a federal judge who has placed a hold on someone's detention that "No, we're ignoring that and have put him on a plane anyway"?

Or "No, we won't be turning that plane around."

I think you mean selectively enforcing some immigration law.
