Donald Trump called for the country to go “back to 1798 ” during a rally showcasing the former president’s full-throated embrace of nativist totalitarianism in the final days of the 2024 campaign cycle.

The former president promised to invoke the Alien Enemies Act , a more than 200 -year-old law that grants the president power to arrest, detain, and deport individuals from countries in a stage of war against the United States without standard due process requirements.
