The most ever.
Trump deported 247,000 during his first term.
Trump will be lucky if he matches Obama.
And Obama made it look easy. No muss,no fuss.
Trump is just putting on a show for the faithful. Too bad he's been upstaged by the opening act.
A black man at that.
Total ****!
The ONLY reason Obama could claim that he deported a record number of illegals is because he changed the definition of what qualifies for a deportation. The lying scumbag simply made his numbers of deportations look better by including those stopped and turned around at the border as a "deportation", despite the fact that this had always been counted as "voluntary returns", and were not counted in Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s deportation statistics.
But you gullible, Obama ***-licking liberals who were clearly dumb enough to believe his lies about Obamacare were just as dumb to accept and swallow his lies about illegal deportations as well!
High deportation figures are misleadingLA Times By Brian Bennett April 1, 2014
WASHINGTON — Immigration activists have sharply criticized President Obama for a rising volume of deportations, labeling him the “deporter in chief” and staging large protests that have harmed his standing with some Latinos, a key group of voters for Democrats.
But the portrait of a steadily increasing number of deportations rests on statistics that conceal almost as much as they disclose. A closer examination shows that immigrants living illegally in most of the continental U.S. are less likely to be deported today than before Obama came to office, according to immigration data.
Expulsions of people who are settled and working in the United States have fallen steadily since his first year in office, and are down more than 40% since 2009.
On the other side of the ledger, the number of people deported at or near the border has gone up — primarily as a result of changing who gets counted in the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency’s deportation statistics.
The vast majority of those border crossers would not have been treated as formal deportations under most previous administrations. If all removals were tallied, the total sent back to Mexico each year would have been far higher under those previous administrations than it is now.
