Tried a similar conversation with my dad last weekend while talking about the “gang members” deported without due process. I said, “you realize without due process even you could be deported. He said “if I’m here illegally let them send me home?” And I said, “without due process how do you prove you’re here legally?”

I'm curious how he responded? In the process of attempting to deprogram my own parent.

Silence. But not the kind of silence where you think they might be having an epiphany. The kind of silence where he knew that I was wrong, but he didn’t know why.

Thanks. Frustrating that that is basically what I had assumed, but thanks.
