CMV: Countering Illegal Immigration is not a Justification for Suspending Habeas Corpus

I just had a debate with a friend who thinks suspension of Habeas Corpus is justified to counter illegal immigration. It's clear they picked up on Trump's argument that due process is impractical given the number of illegal immigrants. My friend is anti-Trump, but they're even more against illegal immigrants. I made the argument that by denying due process with the intent to limit that to only illegal immigrants means that there's no protection against it's application against citizens since if law enforcement can deport people without seeing a judge, citizens could be sent to foreign prisons without being able to prove they're citizens and didn't commit a crime. Even if you think the Trump administration can be trusted not to deport citizens critical of the government, do you trust all future administrations with such a precedent? This is exactly why the Founders wrote this into the Constitution as they did to apply to all persons. Let us not ignore history and give away our freedom!
