      In what world is advocating for border security akin to rendering folks by masked individuals and trafficking them to foreign countries without due process…?

      What democrat has ever advocated for ice to do what they’re currently doing?

      Pointing to how democrats advocating that strengthening our border doesn’t require kidnapping…

      Well you don’t really have a point do you?

        It’s like saying the Republicans are right that you should be scared of immigrants and then being surprised when people vote out of fear for the person who will hurt those immigrants more. They didn’t campaign on mass deportation as one has claimed, but they did justify people’s fears of immigrants.

          They don’t campaign on that?

          “They’re eating the dogs and your cats…”

          “There is a mass horde attacking our border…”

          Republicans did. They did more or less make an enemy of immigrants, shape them into an “other” and now we’re starting to see citizens getting treated like immigrants and citizenship being eroded all while you say “well maybe dems don’t literally campaign on X…”
