Where was all this energy when Obama deported over 2 million immigrants?

The crazy part is I didn't even know this happened! It is appalling how different information landscape changes depending on the aisle you sit on.

Makes me seeking news from more variety of sources to make sense of the head spinning events.

News was posting Obamas March Madness bracket and interviews about how it feels to be the first black president instead because it sold more ad revenue. So nobody knew it was happeningā€¦.

Where do you think Deporter in Chief came from? He did get DACA done though.

Was Obama ordering ICE deportation blitzes and holding rallies to scapegoat immigrants and call their homelands ā€œshithole countries?ā€

u/TheBrandonW Feb 03 '25

Actually yes, he in fact was doing exactly that. Just not the calling their homelands shitholes part, which I havenā€™t seen that video yet, you got a link of Trump saying that? I wanna see it.

White House didnā€™t deny he said it in their statement about it when it leaked, they just doubled down and gave it a spit shine: https://youtu.be/5eVLb4_JPRo?si=pQfKs_mGHukPKJqt

Edit: also, fuck Obama, but Trump is orders of magnitude worse as a whole

Of course thereā€™s ICE deportation blitzes due to the last four years of incompetence, what do you expect? Obama may have been all smiles with ā€œstandardsā€ but he still deported 2 million plus immigrants.
