Yeah guys, FREEDOM is a privilege that your dear leader bestows upon good americans that do whatever he says... the US was based on the freedom to obey, right.
Hey, it's a slow invasion (of unqualified workers), so you're slowly going to war... the only question is who gets the new freedom operation first, Mexico or Canada...

Not just arrested, but they were holding him in an undisclosed location.
Reports are saying he's now been released, but holy fuck I hope they don't get away with disappearing the mayor of a major city to a secret location.
Stephen Miller, the very same same guy publicly floating this idea of suspending habeus corpus, has already gone on record back in January:

Trump's "free" plane would be very expensive.
“This isn’t really a gift,” said Rep. Joe Courtney (D-Conn.), the top Democrat on the House Armed Services Seapower and Projection Forces Subcommittee, which oversees executive airlift. “You’d basically have to tear the plane down to the studs and rebuild it to meet all the survivability, security and communications requirements of Air Force One. It’s a massive undertaking — and an unfunded one at that.”
....
“The cost of a retrofit like this would likely be on the order of a heavy maintenance cycle for a VC-25A, which is in the tens or even hundreds of millions of dollars,” said former Air Force acquisitions chief Andrew Hunter. Add to that the significant cost of sweeping the aircraft for software modifications or embedded foreign tech. “That’s not a trivial thing to do,” Hunter said. “That alone would cost tens of millions of dollars.”

That was the first thing that I thought of. The second is something that cause a crash.

Never trust a plane with an onomatopoeic name like BOING!

Trump puts up giant portrait of himself at the Department of Agriculture
Is this something presidents do?
Over here that's pretty normal
Why?
Odds of him having written that himself are low.
If we ignore the good just so we can focus on the bad we are just becoming as awful as them.
No argument. But he still allowed it to be posted on his hate platform.
There's no way he wrote that, he probably doesn't even know it was posted.

I might acknowledge this statement if it had come out of his own mouth, but since this is completely out of character I'll agree with @Ravenpoe that this probably wasn't something Trump said.
Let's see what he says about Biden on camera. I guarantee it won't sound anything like this.
No we aren’t.
You do not in any circumstances have to hand it to ISIS.
Never said I would. Nor did I say I had to hand it to Trump either. He posted something that’s notable because it’s clearly not his usual bullshit. Be it notable for whatever reason you find it, but it is notable. It didn’t last long, as he was already making up bullshit about endorsement fraud a few hours later. Fleeting compassion does not make him a good person. We don’t have to tolerate him because of brief moments of kindness. It’s never even been suggested.
