President Donald Trump’s crankier tweets often give off a “you kids get off my lawn” vibe, but he actually went there in one angry post on Thursday.
It was part of a series of tweets in which he griped about pesky things like due process for asylum seekers.
In the first tweet, Trump called current immigration laws “insane,” ignoring that they are following the rules set down in the Constitution.
Congress must pass smart, fast and reasonable Immigration Laws now. Law Enforcement at the Border is doing a great job, but the laws they are forced to work with are insane. When people, with or without children, enter our Country, they must be told to leave without our........

In the next one, Trump went into literal “get off my lawn” mode.
.....Country being forced to endure a long and costly trial. Tell the people “OUT,” and they must leave, just as they would if they were standing on your front lawn. Hiring thousands of “judges” does not work and is not acceptable - only Country in the World that does this!

As you can probably guess, many Twitter users had a serious problem with his comments.
Some tried to use logic and reasoning.
That "insane law" you refer to is the 14th Amendment of the US Constitution guaranteeing due process to "any person." Why do you hate the Constitution, Mr. #Trump? #immigration #FamiliesBelongTogether, but not in cages. pic.twitter.com/beLzSVwNwa
