    Hasn’t mass deportation been happening since Obama? Didn’t Biden up the efforts with his administration? Kamala went down to the border and said “Do not come”, yet these people are pretending it’s not happening.

      This is a delicate topic. There is deportation of people who’s asylum claim fails. But there is a dog whistle from Trump to deport “the other”, especially when ending birthright citizenship is also whistled.

      I don’t like how we currently handle the immigration, but if you think any of what is happening now or under Obama was bad, wait until you see what trump plans. To compare the mass deportations planned by trump and his plan to Obama is a bad faith, both sides argument.

        Why do people on this site assume others haven’t thought of things? What is this need to be overly nit-picky and pedantic? Have you considered that maybe what I’m saying is different than what you thought and that I’m only criticizing some aspect of the whole? You’re the second person doing that today. Instead of outright accusing someone of things, why don’t you ask clarifying questions first?

        E: Downvote if you feel identified. God forbid someone expresses their frustration at this neckbeard behavior.

        wait until you see what trump plans.

        What does this have to do with the comment you’re responding to?
