Donald Trump is a serious threat to the civil liberties of
Americans. I doubt he has ever read our
constitution. Trump is specifically a
threat to due process of law and equal protection of the law. Although he denies being anti-black and
anti-Muslim, his policies, statements and the court rulings against his
policies suggest otherwise (as will be discussed in this blog later).

His over-the top rantings on the media should give. He has called the media “the enemy of the people.” https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2017/02/24/donald-trump-cpac-media-enemy-of-the-people/98347970/

This was also Richard Nixon’s attitude toward the media whose
reporting ultimately lead to his resignation.
Most of his executive orders regarding immigration have been found unconstitutional by the courts. The Supreme Court is scheduled to hear one of these cases next year.

He seems to be a strong supporter of freedom of religion and
the Second Amendment. Like many of the far-right the support for freedom of
religion is for the ‘evangelical’ version only and only when that can be used
as a tool to try to block gay marriage, discrimination against LGBT’s.
He has proposed or done nothing to support Second Amendment
freedoms Talk is cheap.. Where is his
bill to enact federal nationwide concealed carry license reciprocity? Former
Nixon Attorney General John Mitchell (who served prison time) said “Watch what
we do, not what we say. http://www.nytimes.com/1988/11/14/opinion/essay-watch-what-we-do.html
The ACLU present an analysis of Trump’s policy positions and
labels him a “One-Man Constitutional Crisis.”
