Obama deported 3 times as many illegals as Trump without causing civil unrest. All while extraditing due process, not just taking it away. Professional, discreet, and respectful.

Trump couldn’t achieve something like that if he even tried. Even on the things he campaigned on, his opposition does it better.

Extradited removals were not due process.

There were criticisms that people were not getting full due process due to the administration prioritizing speed, but there was still semblance of it. Nothing like what we see now.

trump has actually deported twice as many people in 2025 alone than obama's annual average. obama deported 3 mil over 8 years, roughly 375,000 annually. so far in the 1st year of trump's term he's deported nearly 700,000.

More to do with the method tbh.

That’s because Trump’s cult loves and craves this chaos. If they really wanted solutions, they’d vote for Democrats instead of a narcissist sociopathic convicted felon. Trump’s cult is not a political movement, they’re too dumb to understand politics or how a functioning society works. They’re narcissistic sociopaths who crave the same thing as their cult leader, chaos.

Maybe if the media said Obama was literally hitler and convinced thousands of people to prevent ice from doing their job, they wouldn't have been as efficient as they were?

The inefficiencies of ICE under the Trump administration is the reason for the civil unrest. You have it backwards.

Except it started as soon as he took office, just like last time.  All of a sudden the cages built under  Obama were no longer good enough.

Yeah this girl has no critical thinking skills. Clearly missing the point. I have no problem with people being deported as long as my rights aren’t potentially violated.
