COLLINS: Can President Bukele weigh in on this? Do you plan to return Garcia?
BUKELE: How can I smuggle a terrorist into the United States? Of course I'm not going to do it. The question is preposterous
TRUMP: These are sick people
Wonderful thing about “rules based order” people… whoever is in charge gets to make the rules and the “rules based order” people can then go, “Well… see… the courts say its so, the police/miltary say its so, the executive branch says its so”, and then poof there is now no conflict that needs to be resolved with the “rules based order” people. They can go along with something that just last week they were upset about because “well, these are the rules that we live with”.
Except when they get the power, they never use it for good. (Rhetorically) Why didn’t Biden and Co come in swinging like Trump did? A good opposition party would have had a huge stack of executive orders ready to sign day one.
The argument used to be that expanding the powers of the executive and/or violating norms was too dangerous because it would let the republicans do whatever they wanted. That ship has clearly already sailed a decade ago now, which is why their rhetoric seems increasingly empty.

They aren’t the heroes of the story. They’re the good cop in the good cop/bad cop routine.
