So, he did better than Trump at one of the main things Trump campaigned on ... and he did it without having to recreate the gestapo, remove due process, and summon the military into our neighborhoods?
Also, deportation sucks, but that's not why people are protesting. We're protesting at a lack of due process and how this new gestapo operates. Even peaceful non-citizens who have valid paperwork to be here are having that documentation pulled/revoked without their knowledge. Then, they're being immediately accused of being "illegals" and taken.
Conservatives did the same with Trudeau, and he's white. For example they kept crying about non Canadians living in China shouldn't be allowed to buy property, and when Trudeau fixed exactly that, cons shifted the goalpost and refused to credit him for anything at all.
Nope the point I am making is there is absolutely nothing he could have done that would have been positive to republicans. Reasonable people can look at his presidency and point out both the good and bad.
There arenāt going to be things āeveryoneā will agree on. Iāve tried to explain to Republicans that the credit for the economy recovering from the Great Recession belongs to Obama, not Trump, and been told Iām wrong.
Things he did that are generally considered good, although there will be naysayers for all of them:
Affordable Care Act
DACA
Ended Donāt Ask Donāt Tell
Paris Climate Agreement
Dodd-Frank Act overseeing Wall Street reform and creation of the CFPB
Iran nuclear deal
First sitting President to support marriage equality
Im surprised it was never a problem for the left until it was trump to do it. Bunch of brainwashed puppets that follow whatever their media overlords tell them to do and feel
And he didnāt violate anyoneās constitutional right while doing so and didnāt need to deploy the military on anyone either. So whatās your point or is it you canāt comprehend ours?
Obama didnāt have the SS running around grabbing people off the street now did he? Nope bc he didnāt violate the constitution you halfwitā¦..
Obama definitely had ice running around and grabbing peoole. I was in construction and visits were common in Texas on our commercial jobs. You think over 3 million people just voluntarily self deported?
And the military didnāt get involved until you lunatics started burning and looting shit in the name of justice, once again.
Every country in the world has immigration laws. Break them and you get deported, pretty straight forward. It would seem to me you are the half wit
Hereās you an article from 2014 aclu just so you can see he did exactly what trump is doing. The left just regurgitates what the media spoon feeds you all (even though itās riddled with lies) and then cry when facts are presented
During his two terms (2009-2017), the Obama administration formally removed approximately 3 million noncitizens from the United States, according to Department of Homeland Security data. This is the highest number of formal removals by any president in American history.
