Trump decision to send the military to the border is illegal.
in Politics
Debra AI Prediction
Arguments
The border laws are only partially the domain of the domestic law, and illegal immigrants that have no American residence also can be an exempt from the mentioned act.
The idea of this and similar acts is (and has always been) to make sure that the government cannot use the military force in order to usurp power and suppress dissent. When the military force is used against foreigners that, according to the president's narrative, are "invaders: - then the circumstances (at least the way the executive branch interprets them) are obviously different.
As such, it is not clear whether Trump's decision is technically illegal or not, and on various law forums you will find countless debates on this matter, with both sides providing very compelling arguments. This is the case where the interpretation of the law is not very clear. It is the job of the Supreme Court to classify Trump's decision as legal or illegal, should a respective request be submitted to the court.
What is for sure is that this decision, whether technically legal or not, creates a bad precedent. The Founding Fathers warned that the dictatorial overtake is likely to happen not as a result of sudden usurpation of power, but, rather, a gradual encroachment on people's freedoms, a slow and steady increase in the involvement of the military sector in the civilian matters. This could very well be one more step towards materialization of those warnings, and the nation should make it clear that this sort of action is not acceptable. Unfortunately, given how loyal Donald's supporter base is, I do not think they will see the possibility of eventual military dictatorship as connected to this decision in any way, so here we are.

First it is not the Military that Executive Officer Trump can send it is realistically now called the United States Armed Forces. The United States Military was politically quarantined unconstitutional by accusation of discrimination based on gender. A woman cannot be admitted legally to the United State of military in an honorable fashion using simply democratic vote as means to insure the relief of obligation a military hold on United States Constitution. However this is not the real topic of debate.
The United States Armed Forces are not sent to enforce State Law they defend Constitutional law, they are sent to restrict the invasion of a foreign force on a united state in order to defend a United States Constitution itself. Mexico would need to make an official declaration, in writing, in the form of travel visa describing their citizens as a civilian, none Militia, or they can simply be instantly returned to Mexico. The obstacle to liberty created by civil war has become militia out of uniform globally.
At least in a United State of Constitution. Though I would not say this is the only United State held by constitutional principle in this matter.
