Your argument is like saying a burglar is not evading the police after he got caught
330 places to present themselves isn't enough, some would say.

This left leaning article outlines all the raids Trump authorized during his presidency. While written to make ICE and the Trump administration "bad guys", if you can get through the portrayal of the illegals as "victims", it shows just how committed Trump was to keeping American jobs for people legally eligible for them.

great article, even if the group doesn't realize it. They pretty basically say "we don't care that 50-75% of the arrests involved those with a criminal record, because the other % were illegal aliens who had escaped the law and deportation". In their mind, it is better to NOT bother with the criminals if it somehow upsets the "peaceful illegals".
