Trump claps back at courts for 'interfering' with job, asks 'how you can give due process' to illegal migrants

During a special commencement address to students at the University of Alabama, President Donald Trump questioned how you can give due process to people who have illegally entered the United States, in a rebuke to judges who Trump said were "interfering" with his efforts to do his job as president.  

Trump's comments came the same day a federal judge permanently barred his efforts to use the centuries-old Alien Enemies Act (AEA) to deport illegal alien gang members.  

"As you've been reading, the courts are trying to stop me from doing the job that I was elected to do," Trump said during his address to graduates. "They have to let us do the job that the voters want us to do. Judges are interfering, supposedly based on due process. But how can you give due process to people who came into our country illegally? They want to give them due process. I don't know."
