President Donald Trump thanked El Salvador’s president after he posted a stunning video of hundreds of suspected migrant criminals arriving in Central America after being deported from the United States.
Trump thanked President Nayib Bukele on social media after citing the Alien Enemies Act of 1798, which permits the deportation of citizens and natives of an enemy country without a hearing.
“Thank you to El Salvador and, in particular, President Bukele, for your understanding of this horrible situation, which was allowed to happen to the United States because of incompetent Democrat leadership. We will not forget,” Trump wrote.
