      It’s often a fact “both sides” don’t enjoy, but it’s still a fact.

      Trump was super ineffective in implementing his horrible rhetoric. It took Obama a term, and some judgements and a settlement against what his administration was up to, to start treating people more like people. And Biden has been “business as usual” as he’s dealt with the influx of humans after COVID restrictions were lifted.

      So two presidents in 8 years did more than one president did in 4 years ? That is the headline here ?

        No? Why act so dishonestly and try to frame it as something it’s not?

        Under Trump, from fiscal year 2017 to fiscal year 2020, the Department of Homeland Security recorded 2 million deportations

        And

        During Obama’s first term, fiscal year 2009 to fiscal year 2012, there were 3.2 million deportations

        Americans really need to learn they have a right wing and a far right wing party.
