I can understand why you would think that and I agree that I’m not providing much factual information to work with. I’m not really trying to win an argument here. I was attempting to suggest that relying purely on one data set without considering the wider political and social context is a poor way to form an opinion.

I have a hard time clearly communicating my thoughts and tone via text, but please believe that I mean no disrespect. That being said, bringing up Obama’s numbers in a discussion about Trump is quite literally excusing Trump’s attempted atrocities because someone else was “worse” in your chosen metric. My position is that numbers don’t always tell the whole story.

No, I’m saying just looking at the numbers doesn’t tell the whole story and intentions also play a large role. Trump wanted to do more than he did but was hindered in many ways. He still did untold damage to our immigration systems and irreparably damaged hundreds of families. It’s really difficult to explain a concept as vast as this without essentially writing a book, and that isn’t my strong suit.

I’m perfectly okay with Obama also being a bad guy here, but he didn’t publicly dehumanize immigrants and their families. He also didn’t advocate for removing legal residents based solely on their demographic information.

From my perspective it was less about the numbers and more about how vocal Trump was about his intentions. Add to that the family separation policy and the STILL MISSING children when he’s a known associate of Epstien there was plenty to be upset about.

As a healthcare worker, the nurses are absolutely not washing their hands intentionally. You’d be surprised how many healthcare workers don’t believe in science based medicine.

Same. I also have one of the older models in that family of cases. I love the thing but need to put in a water cooling loop.
