While Republicans have celebrated President Donald Trump's crackdown on illegal immigration, Democrats have accused the Trump administration's deportations of violating due process.

"We need judges that are not going to be demanding a trial for every single illegal immigrant. We have millions of people who have come in here illegally, and we can't have a trial for every single person. That would be millions of trials," Trump recently told reporters on Air Force One.

Illston said Trump may broadly restructure federal agencies, but only in "lawful ways" with approval from Congress.

Trump asserted that children will be fine having two dolls — perhaps three or five — instead of 30 if U.S. import taxes increase consumer prices. The response on social media included memes of him portrayed as the Grinch and photos of a young Barron Trump’s child-sized Mercedes convertible.
