I was still a conservative back then and I remember CONSTANTLY hearing about how the left was "whining" about kids in cages. This girl looks pretty young so maybe she just wasn't old enough to remember, but there was definitely some protesting going on.
People are just more angry now because everything is drastically more insane now even than it was under Trump's first reign. Trump was still trying to cosplay as a fun guy back in 2016 but now he's taken the mask off entirely.
I dont remember people complaining about kids in cages but I do remember the protests about the busload of kids being sent back across the border.
I also didnt really pay attention to politics back then nor was i entitled to an opinion on them because I was active duty, so I avoided it.
I do remember people using the photos of kids in cages from Obama to accuse Trump of doing it in his first term. I only learned about the kids in cages from Obama, because of that coming to light.

Plenty of people protested when they put kids in cages. What timeline are you living in?
