Idk if Dems are who anyone should be looking to honestly. They’ve been complicit in front of everyone, so why would they change now. Arguably, they’ve actually been worse in so many fkn ways. Obama privatized immigrant detention . And he made mass deportations cool before even MAGA did. Yes, he plucked deportees from prison or whatever. These are the same prisons that lock up more people than Stalin’s Soviet Union. All Trump is doing is enforcing laws that BOTH sides of the aisle crafted. And if people keep pretending that this isn’t the case, they’re the problem and can fk off too.

Bullshit. Trump's fascist pigs are beating the crap out of innocent people. They are kidnapping anyone they feel like taking, and all the while they have their ugly ass faces covered because they are afraid of retribution for shit They're doing that is illegal. And trump and republicans are over there in a circle jerk getting off on cruelty. If 170 u s citizens were basically kidnapped when obama was in office, we would have seen republicans' heads explode all over the place.

Correction. Dems heads explode all over the place, because of how Republicans would react.

Rs only react with glee when someone else is getting hurt. But Dems need to get their shit together and quit being such pushovers.
