Trump and his supporters have made clear that they believe international law is a fiction—it's "fake and gay," as one recently said—and what really matters is just power: might makes right.

And it sure seems like they believe the same to be true domestically.

Note that the fascist is not using the pepper spray for crowd control. He is entering a vehicle unimpeded to depart. He is simply using the pepper spray to physically punish an unarmed citizen he doesn't like.
