The Trump administration recently deported a Maryland father to El Salvador's mega-prison, leading to the Supreme Court to order his return back to the U.S. But despite that case, which officials acknowledged as a mistake, the administration has embraced the initiative, removing Venezuelans accused of being gang members and with President Donald Trump saying he would also like the idea of deporting American citizens to the country's infamous prison system.
The president told reporters on Air Force One on Sunday that "we have some horrible criminals, American grown, born," and that he's "all for" sending them to prisons in El Salvador— where some Venezuelan migrants are already being detained. "I don't know what the law says on that," he added.
