I can agree that maybe those people should lose their citizenship if they have been found guilty of the charges against them by a court of law. But that is not for one man to decide. One man rule is called Dictatorship. Rule by Law is called Freedom from Tyranny.

I don't understand why you don't get that. History is rife with example of people who were falsely accused and their lives ruined, only to later on be found to have been innocent. Think of all the black people who were lynched in extra-judicial proceedings just because white people didn't like the color of their skin. We need to make sure we continue to be a country ruled by Laws and leaving the judgments to our Judicial System. This idea that you can let one man who is the President judge any citizen based on his own opinion is so incredibly stupid and dangerous, it is breathtaking.
