He is accurately pointing out that the current system isn’t working. He never said to get rid of the whole thing, you did. If you think he is “repeating Trump’s talking points” just because he said that the current system isn’t working, then you need to work on your reading comprehension skills.
Additionally, you don’t need to have a replacement or a fix, to be able to point out the flaws in the current system.
Trump is currently undermining the due process rights of thousands of people, using the reasoning that…
a)…some people don’t deserve those rights because they’re “bad people”…
…and b)…if we gave everyone the chance to dispute their case in court, it would take too long.
Buddy’s comment above may not be the exact same, word-for-word…but he’s still saying the exact same thing.
The problem with all these arguments is, who gets to decide who deserves the right to dispute theIR case in court, and who is pre-judged a criminal and gets sentenced without a trial? If it were up to Trump, all immigrants would have those rights taken away. If it was up to the guy above, Trump would. They’re making the same argument, just directing it towards different people. And if that is the system that you favor…then whether or not you have the legal right to defend yourself, will depend solely on who is accusing you of a crime.
That isn’t justice. That’s a dictatorship.
The flaws in the current system, exist because if they didn’t…innocent people would also be punished for crimes they didn’t commit. The entire reason the system can be “gamed”, is because closing those loopholes would turn the entire system into a draconian nightmare with no possible avenues of escape.
