Abstract: Tyranny's objective is to render the tyrant's power absolute.Under these conditions, the rule of law becomes a dangerous rival to the tyrant's will to total power.Donald Trump's war on migrants facilitates unmitigated power by relentlessly transforming regions of the nation into internal zones that operate as if they were outside national borders.These are, in effect, wild ('law-free') zones outside the law that require constant patrolling.
