That's the thing that a lot of people keep misunderstanding. If the President of the US wants a person back from what I am going to describe as "A lesser country," only for this exact moment, and not for any other case at all, he can get that person back. Send a battle group over, and ask politely.
El Salvador does not have the ability to keep him, if we want him back.
It's even simpler than that - the US is paying, actively, 20k USD per person at CECOT. The US is fully in control over that arrangement.
I feel it's even stupider than that. The 2 met in person yesterday in DC. I was ready for them to bring the guy back and make a big show about how magnanimous he is to bring him back just to please the people or something.
But instead, Trump is all "well I couldn't possibly tell the great nation of El Salvador what to do," cameras pan over to Bukele, "uhhh, you want me to smuggle a guy into the US???"
You clowns are literally right next to each other, acting like the other person isn't there. Bukele could say "hey, do you want the guy back?" and that would be that. But they just play a game with a guy's life and Steve Miller goes and says he wants to do the same with everybody that looks at him wrong.
