Trump deported fewer people than Obama or Biden per year because many states and cities resisted.

Looks like the dems are going to cooperate with Trump this time.

      That is correct, hence why it’s dumb to accept the rightwing framing of “Oh, we only want to deport criminals” or “We like legal immigration”.

        I don’t see the problem with either of those. Legal immigration is an entirely separate thing from illegal immigration.

          The government determines what illegal immigration is.

          If you want to increase the pool of illegals to deport simply lower quotas or throw some extra road blocks in there (my buddy has paid over 20K in non-lawyer fees in the last decade to maintain his legal status, and even then has had lapses and had to leave the country once due to horse-shit that our immigration system is).

          Remember, all the immigrants in Springfield, OH Trump said he would deport were legally in the country.
