      I feel used to it. We had concentration camps during the FDR admin, and we’ve had gestapo since shortly after 9/11. Trump didn’t turn the US into shit, all he did was smear it on our faces.

        non of these raids happened under Biden, stop lying to yourself. Trump is 100% exponentially escalating the surveilance state

          Biden didn’t do anything to roll it back, either, AFAIK. The democrats built their 2024 campaign on “Trump is a dangerous fascist” (and he is) right up until they shitcanned it when that kid took a shot at him. Well, they said he was a dangerous fascist, but they sure didn’t act like it, and they left all the tools he would need handily lying around for him.

            That’s about1.5% of the undocumented population in the US.

            For comparison, trump wants to deport 1,000,000 people a year.

            Trump is also deporting people without due process. He’s deporting people who are here legally and going through the immigration system.

            The scale of difference here is the difference.
