YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Donald Trump recently said US citizens suspected of terrorism should be tried in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, which is unconstitutional. Ben Mankiewicz (What The Flick), Ana Kasparian, John Iadarola (ThinkTank), and Jimmy Dore, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.

"Donald Trump does not believe U.S. citizens accused of terrorism should be tried in the regular judicial system and would prefer to see them adjudicated by military tribunals.

He told the Miami Herald on Thursday that he would like to send more terrorists to a “very safe place” like Naval Station Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and would stop releasing “bad ones” who are being held in that facility.

Asked by reporter Patricia Mazzei whether he would “try to get the military commissions — the trial court there — to try U.S. citizens,” Trump indicated that he would.

“Well, I know that they want to try them in our regular court systems, and I don’t like that at all. I don’t like that at all,” he explained. “I would say they could be tried there, that would be fine.”

The Sixth Amendment to the United States Constitution guarantees all accused U.S. citizens the right to a “speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed.””*
