    People absolutely were thrown into concentration camps during his last term, and they tried to do it more.

          …concentration…camps? Poison gas showers, slave labor, cremation ovens? Concentration camps, designed to slaughter people en masse?

          I agree, they were overcrowded because there were so many illegal immigrants. There were a few deaths, and even abuses, I read some of them. I’m not cheering for things like that.

          But to label detention camps as concentration camps like Nazi Germany, that’s not even close to true. If we’re calling those concentration camps, I must say, they are the worst concentration camps in the history of the world. Or does that, ironically, make them the best? The concentration camps with the least deaths.

          I don’t recall us going into Mexico & other countries, rounding up foreign citizens, and bringing them to the United States specifically to be killed in concentration camps as an ethnic cleansing.
