> This executive most certainly can, has already, and will continue to neglect processes intended to protect everyone from arbitrary and capricious treatment by the government

This is not something specific to "This executive". US has, since some time (Obama ?) banning people from travelling and searched phones and laptops at border, worse than other, "undemocratic" countries.



Under Obama, was anyone banned from travel into the US because they had a meme pic of his VP on their phone? Were any US citizens passports revoked because they criticized the military actions of an ally?

So yes, this is specific to 'his executive'.
