I don't know the number that Obama deported I just elaborated on what kind of illegals he deported and those he gave stays of deportation to and they were in the millions.

No, Trump wants to deport the convicted criminals and every other illegal alien. Obama only did the former not the latter.

Trump admitted what we all knew in the first place. Admit it, stop trying to spin it, and move on.
Some people are just stuck on stupid.

Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson acknowledged Tuesday that his department’s deportation numbers are now mostly made up of illegal immigrants caught at the border, not just those from the interior, which means they can’t be compared one-to-one with deportations under President Bush or other prior administrations.

Previous administrations primarily counted only those caught in the interior of the U.S. by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Will you continue to lie or be ignorant that indeed the definition of deportation was changed by people with your mentality to play the exact game you are playing.

Who is spinning?

He was mistaken. I don't know if it was an outright lie or he didn't have his facts straight. From what I understand Obama supposedly deported around 2 million illegal aliens during his term but the fact remains that he was also counting those who were turned around at the border. Whether Trump was aware of that or not I don't know. Either way, what is the point when he allowed about 6 million of them to remain here under a stay of deportation along with work permits and that is the point that Trump should have brought up. He missed the boat on that one.

The point is that Obama as all presidents has returned and removed illegals, but when Trump promises to do it liberal voters faint in shock over deporting illegals as required by law.

I did not know, that if you caught a person trying to enter the United States, at the border, it's called a deportation?

Amazing....

From the LA Times no doubt...

LOL

Now, the vast majority of border crossers who are apprehended get fingerprinted and formally deported. The change began during the George W. Bush administration and accelerated under Obama. The policy stemmed in part from a desire to ensure that people who had crossed into the country illegally would have formal charges on their records.

Trump did so several months ago and added something along the lines of " unlike Obama, I have heart and will show compassion. I am the compassionate candidate. "

"Many" isn't the same as enough.
