Sen. Chris Van Hollen compares Trump admin to 'authoritarian government' during El Salvador trip

Sen. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., suggested the U.S. was on its way to "tyranny" on Wednesday during an interview from El Salvador while on a trip to visit Kilmar Abrego Garcia, comparing the Trump administration to an authoritarian government. 

"This is like taking away people’s freedom. That does not sound like a conservative idea to me. That is something that, of course, authoritarian governments engage in. And it’s a very fast road to tyranny if we don’t all stand up against it," Van Hollen told MSNBC's Rachel Maddow.
