I'm sure he will. But that doesn't refute the assertion that what they're doing is illegal. It supports it, even.

All else aside I wouldn’t assume he’s going to. I doubt Trump cares one way or the other if these kids rot in jail.

There’s a long, long list of people who thought “Trump owes me” would be a guarantee and got a rude awakening.
