The emperor was called the 'Deporter in Chief'

Between 2009 and 2015 his administration has removed more than 2.5 million people through immigration orders, which doesn’t include the number of people who "self-deported" or were turned away and/or returned to their home country at the border by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP).
Obama Has Deported More People Than Any Other President - ABC News (https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/obamas-deportation-policy-numbers/story?id=41715661)

His DHS deported 2.7 million people for an average of about a thousand illegals a day, for 8 years




The left was championing the fact that the emperor had deported more illegals than Trump had.


The Trump administration has deported fewer overall people than were deported under former President Obama despite the ongoing crackdown on immigrants without legal status, according to the Washington Post. While the Obama administration deported 1.18 million people in his first three years, the number of deportations has been a little under 800,000 so far under Trump, according to the Post. The Obama administration also deported 409,849 people in 2012 alone, while the Trump administration has yet to deport more than 260,000 people in a year, the Post reported.

So why is it that now that Trump has initiated a new crackdown, the left is in tears ?

Why didn't Christian clerics confront the emperor at services over his deportation policies and ask him to show mercy for the people who pick our crops, clean our office buildings ;work in poultry and meat packing plants (as if that is the only reason to have immigration) ?

Don't answer . If they did not have double standards they'd have no standards at all.

The Mayor of Yuma Arzona has an op-ed in Newsweek comparing the performance of Trump and Clueless Joe's administration's border control (or lack thereof in Joe's case ) Yuma is on the Arizona - California border of Mexico

2019

Caravans of hundreds of migrants began crossing the border illegally. U.S. Border Patrol quickly exceeded capacity and were forced by the Flores Settlement Agreement to release these migrants with children within 72 hours into the streets of Yuma.
Upon receiving the first notice of these releases, I proclaimed a local State of Emergency. When the Trump Administration heard, their Intergovernmental Affairs Department called to invite me to speak with President Trump in the Oval Office.In a few weeks, the Remain in Mexico policy was implemented, and in a couple of months the numbers were back to pre-surge levels. Relevant federal action addressed the federal issue that was impacting Yuma.

Then came Joe's term


The Biden Administration did not have this impact. Once again, Yuma was on the front line of federal issues. The effective provisions securing the border were removed on the first day of the new Biden Administration.
Within months, I proclaimed another local State of Emergency. I again had discussions with the Intergovernmental Affairs Department, but this time no access to communication with the POTUS.
I had meetings with DHS officials including Secretary Mayorkas, yet no change in policies. I was simply told that the border was secure.

We had a peak of 1,500 migrants crossing the border illegally in one day, and there was still no effective federal response. Three and a half years into the Biden Administration, there was finally a new policy shift that had some minor impact—too little, too late.

Since President Trump was inaugurated to his second term, the volume of illegal migrants crossing the border is nearing the lows during his first presidency. The difference is action.
