Let’s talk about the elephant—or rather, the millions of elephants—left wandering around after the previous administration decided our southern border was more of a polite suggestion than an actual line. Remember those years? It felt like the “Welcome” mat wasn’t just out, it was practically plastered across the entire Rio Grande, and frankly, the results weren’t exactly surprising. Chaos, confusion, and a whole lot of people pouring in without so much as a “how do you do?”

Now, President Trump is back in the Oval Office, rolling up his sleeves to tackle the monumental task of cleaning up this inherited disaster. It’s not just about stemming the tide; it’s about dealing with the millions who entered the country illegally under Joe Biden’s watch. Restoring order and ensuring the safety of American communities is priority number one, but let’s be honest, the scale of this challenge is something else entirely.

Which brings us to President Trump’s latest, typically blunt assessment of the situation. Faced with millions who bypassed our laws to get here, he’s questioning the practicality – and sanity – of giving every single person a lengthy, individual trial before showing them the door. He’s essentially saying what many with common sense are thinking: the system was never designed for this kind of onslaught.

When Common Sense Clashes with Courtrooms

President Trump didn’t mince words, pointing out the sheer absurdity of trying to apply normal procedures to an abnormal, Biden-induced crisis. He’s looking for cooperation from the courts, but he’s also making it clear that waiting years for trials isn’t feasible or safe.

From ‘The Daily Wire’:

“We’re getting them out. I hope we get cooperation from the courts, because we have thousands of people that are ready to go out and you can’t have a trial for all of these people… A judge can’t say, ‘You know, you have to have a trial.’ The trial is going to take two years… No, we’re going to have a very dangerous country if we’re not allowed to do what we’re entitled to do.”

He even threw out a figure on Truth Social, estimating it could take a staggering 200 years to process everyone through individual trials. Two centuries! It highlights the massive disconnect between the theoretical legal process and the practical reality of dealing with an unprecedented border failure. It’s simply not workable.

Securing the Nation, Not Just the Border

Beyond the logistical nightmare, Trump rightly hammers the national security angle. He explicitly linked his election win to the promise to “get them out,” arguing that allowing potentially dangerous individuals to remain while navigating endless legal hurdles puts the country at risk. We’ve already seen the administration battling in court to deport suspected gang members, only to be “bogged down” by judicial roadblocks.

This isn’t just about paperwork; it’s about prioritizing the safety and sovereignty of the United States. When the previous administration flung the doors open, they didn’t exactly roll out an advanced vetting system. Trump’s argument is clear: we can’t afford to treat an invasion like a minor traffic violation requiring years of court dates.

The ongoing legal tussles, like the attempts to deport suspected MS-13 or Tren de Aragua members being stalled by judges or even the Supreme Court, perfectly illustrate the frustration. It feels like some parts of the system are actively working against common-sense measures needed to protect the nation, favoring lengthy process over practical security.

So, when President Trump says we can’t give everyone a trial, it’s not about ignoring rights; it’s about recognizing that the situation created by his predecessor requires a different, more decisive approach. It’s a call for pragmatism in the face of chaos, arguing that the primary duty of the government – protecting its citizens and its borders – must take precedence over bureaucratic procedures that were never meant to handle millions entering illegally. It’s a tough stance, but given the mess he inherited, maybe it’s the necessary one.

Key Takeaways:

• President Trump argues individual trials for millions of Biden-era illegal immigrants are impractical and dangerous.
• He asserts mass deportation is crucial for national security and fulfills his mandate from voters.
• Activist courts and bureaucratic processes are hindering the administration’s efforts to secure the border and remove illegal immigrants swiftly.
