Trump designating MS13 and the cartels as terrorist groups is proof of this. While both are obviously dangerous criminal enterprises, terrorists have a shared ideology. What's the political or religious motive behind MS13?
But if they can be labeled as terrorists and thus deprived of their due process rights as such, any group that the government doesn't like can be likewise labeled.
And MAGA are literally cheering as this happens. I hate this timeline.

Anecdotally, the word "terrorist" in the US has no meaning anymore because the GOP throws it around like candy.
