How do these people see the state exactly? The president can just do whatever? Equal application of the law doesn't matter?
Probably because everyone saw him bail out the criminals involved in the Jan 6th insurrection- it’s not too large a leap for them to assume they are exempt from this as well.
In granting waivers for individual circumstances, that's actually exactly the case. Our immigration law has always been deranged.
Pretty sure that's how Trump sees it too
