Schumer criticizes Trump’s stance on Constitution amid immigration controversy

President Donald Trump faced bipartisan criticism after stating in a 'Meet the Press' interview that he was unsure whether he must uphold the Constitution in the context of a Supreme Court ruling concerning a wrongfully deported immigrant, Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Trump said he was relying on his legal team to interpret the ruling and deferred constitutional questions to them. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer condemned the remarks as 'un-American,' highlighting concerns about presidential responsibility to the Constitution. Democratic Senator Chris Van Hollen also argued that the administration's actions amounted to a constitutional crisis, accusing Trump of ignoring court orders regarding Garcia. Legal experts noted that the Supreme Court has consistently affirmed some due process protections for non-citizens, further complicating the administration's stance. The controversy underscores broader disputes over the Trump administration's approach to judicial authority and immigration policy.
