Then let them be treated as the criminals they are when they do.
Yeah, they should.
Will they, though?

Until he pardons them the way he pardoned the Jan 6 insurrectionists.
And that's just the start. Just like the brownshirts were just a temporary measure until the Nazi Genocide-Disguised-as-Deportation Machine got up and running. Oh yeah, about that... I learned recently that Nazi Germany wasn't exactly up front with its own citizens about what was going to happen to all the people they were rounding up. They actually claimed they were being deported. So uh, when news starts dropping about mass deportations... you'd better take it with a serious grain of salt that they're actually getting sent back to Mexico or Ukraine or wherever.
For that matter, I don't think it's going to be immigrants, or even minorities generally, who will be the main target. Trump's bigotry, while one of his primary qualities, is still nothing compared to the size of his ego. His main goal in establishing that he can strip anyone he wants of their citizenship, and by extension their right to continue living in this country, is to eliminate anyone who doesn't like him.

It is interesting to watch all of them together. Melania, Ivanka, and Don Jr can tune it out and go inside their heads. Tiffany doesn't seem to mind being there. Eric is paying close attention, seldom looking away from the speaker.
Donald doesn't enjoy inside his head, so he's not going in there. I think his demeanor is pretty typical of people who have to sit through a sermon involuntarily. He doesn't go to Church. He doesn't want to be there. He doesn't want to hear what this lady has to day. But he doesn't have anything to do and he's miserable. Add on that it is very hard for a narcissist to endure criticism and she skirts in on that. I don't think he has an active thought life, so he can't just start thinking about something he read earlier. He's just pinned on a pew.
I accidentally clicked a link it gives at the end that has different cameras. Vance is on the other side of Melania and he gives Donald a bit of side eye, probably trying to gauge Trump's reaction without drawing too much attention. For most of it, Vance look like he is enduring a scolding and trying not to get in worse trouble.
I typically have thought of Melania was someone who married him for his money and despises him and is embarrassed by him, but watching this it does appear that she likes him.
At 9 minutes, the service is over and reporters catch Donald outside. They ask what he thought of the service and his answer is quintessential Donald. "What did YOU think? Did you like it? Did you find it exciting?.....Not too exciting, was it? I didn't think it was a good service, no. Thank you very much. They could do much better"
Perhaps when the economy and immigration and the wars are all fixed, he will have time next week to fix Church.
Edit - I wouldn't have cast Tig Notaro in this role, but she brought it off well as always.
