This unfiltered take on US President Donald Trump's latest statements will tackle various touchy topics with no holds barred.
Trump Keeps the Grid Tight: Due Process, Nation Expansion, Economy, and a Third Term
It's no surprise that the media is buzzing about Trump's latest sit-down with NBC's Meet The Press as he spoke about his intentions for the American people... and a few other things.
In the fiery conversation, Trump showed no signs of wavering from his promised agenda, despite facing increased resistance as his second term hits the 100-day milestone. The interview, taped at his Mar-a-Lago property in Florida, aired on Sunday, leaving viewers with some intense opinions.
But let's get to the heart of the matter, shall we?
Fifth Amendment Fog: Due Process or Not?
When it comes to due process rights that are crucial components of the US Constitution, Trump seems a bit hazy. The president refused to clearly affirm his commitment to uphold these rights, stating that he "doesn't know" if US citizens and non-citizens deserve due process as the Fifth Amendment lays out.
It's worth mentioning that the Fifth Amendment guarantees "due process of law," providing individuals alleged of committing a crime with specific rights. The 14th Amendment, on the other hand, prohibits states from denying "equal protection of the laws" to any individual within their jurisdiction.
Trump emphasized that his team of brilliant lawyers would follow the Supreme Court orders, but remains skeptical about due process as he voices concerns over court-imposed obstacles to his nationwide deportation efforts.
Growth Spurts: The Trump Economy
In defensive mode, Trump asserts that the US economy is in a "transition period" but ultimately expects it to soar to new heights, regardless of the economic chaos sparked by his tariffs. He even snipes that Wall Street analysts merely spouting bleak projections while others celebrate the Trump economy's potential.
Making Canada the 51st State: Highly Unlikely, Says Trump
Meanwhile, the topic of annexing Canada as the 51st state stirs up conversation. Trump argues that it's highly unlikely military force would be necessary to make this happen, but he stops short of dismissing the possibility entirely that such action might be necessary to claim Greenland from ally Denmark.
A Third Term? Maybe, but Don't Count On It
Trump wouldn't shy away from a third term if public support surged his way, though he somewhat sarcastically maintains he's only focused on delivering four successful years and finding a capable successor—preferably a fantastic Republican. That's not to say he won't keep the idea of a third term in his back pocket, just in case his Democratic predecessor Joe Biden doesn't make a splash.
As always, this article aims to provide an unfiltered, uncensored take on the issues being tackled by the media and the people in power. Stay tuned for updates as Trump navigates his way through the political landscape.

However, the president acknowledges that his administration will follow the Supreme Court's interpretations regarding due process.
- The president's stance on due process, as highlighted in the interview, seems unclear, especially regarding the rights guaranteed by the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments, which could have significant implications for policy-and-legislation related to legal procedures.
- Trump's economic policies continue to generate mixed responses, with the president himself asserting that the US economy is experiencing a transition period while simultaneously anticipating unprecedented growth, despite mounting concerns over the impact of tariffs on the economy, as reported in general-news outlets.
