I’m not arguing that Obama is worse than Trump or vice versa. I don’t think anything will meaningfully change unless we can acknowledge that the US is inhumanely monstrous to immigrants regardless of which party is in charge. Obviously Trump’s escalated use of ICE like Gestapo is abhorrent, but it isn’t a new role for the agency.
