First, these are not "concentration camps" they are detention facilities that any single person in them could freely leave and return to their point of origin.  One cannot freely leave a concentration camp, ergo these are not concentration camps.

Secondly, using the term concentration camp has an intense negative connotation that every single person in this thread is aware of.  Using it in this instance is intentionally inflammatory and anyone pretending it wasn't used for precisely that reason should be ashamed of their rank dishonesty.

Yeah I do not doubt it was intentionally inflammatory. Also hyperbolic. But that happens pretty much every time an US politician talks.
