Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Obama’s administration recorded over 3 million deportations vs Trumps administration recorded over 1.7 million deportations
Rookie numbers Trump lol
Obama wasn't in the habit of having unidentified, masked federal agents breaking into citizen's house without warrants, then keeping them in concentration camps, where they die or maybe get arbitrarily deported. People aren't complaining about illegal immigrants getting deported. It's the weaponization if the federal government against citizens and the lack of due process, which is afforded to all individuals regardless of how they ended up in the US.
Your numbers are a strawman argument commonly used by people that don't know what they're talking about or are maliciously arguing in bad faith. Your lack of critical thinking leaves both options up for debate.
And yet Obama didn't need to send masked goons to occupy entire cities to do that because he isn't a blithering moron.
To be fair he didn’t have the media saying they were fascist lol and people doxing ice agents
That is probably because they didn't have masked ICE agents occupying cities and shooting white ladies in the face.
I think there's some confusion between cause and effect going on in this chain.
You can't dox info that is meant to be public, like the identify of public employees. They're not wearing masks because they're doing things legally.
80% of which were just turning people round at the border
So he didn’t deport that many? lol
3 million over eight years, versus 1.7 million over one year. If Trump doesn't choke on a Big Mac, and keeps this up for 4 years, that would be over 13.5 million.
Didn't they say they were aiming for 100M deported?
His number kept changing as they always do with him. I heard 10 then 11 then 21 million, but never 100 million. I could be wrong.
Man, you must have nuanced opinions on the different flavors of window.
