The Spin
Republican narrative
The Guantánamo operation is essential for national security, effectively handles dangerous criminals — including members of designated foreign terrorist organizations — and supports the Trump administration's broader deportation strategy.
Democratic narrative
The program is a costly and legally questionable operation that violates constitutional rights — with most detained individuals having no criminal records in the US — lacks proper facilities, and has failed to demonstrate its necessity or effectiveness.
