You should know better than this. I've shown you the statistics several times. Look at my comment history. No president in the past 5+ decades has reduced deportations in their term more than Trump. How many times do you want to see the deportation stats? (edit - here) That CREATED additional migrants, encouraging them to enter the US.

You speak of deportations but the number of migrants applying for permanent residency remains almost unchanged since 1989, around 800k-1m average, no change under Trump. But the policy was different.

The problem with your statistics is it is government data, which doesn't include estimates for all those who slop under the fence, whoch is what they do without border control.

But the number of migrants has been increasing, as many are pointing out.

And for those who are not documented that's related to migration INTO the US, not deportations, [which we're discussing].

The number of illegal immigrants, these are typically unregistered, undocumented and not in your precious statistics.

Seriously?! VISIT those links, and especially the DHS PDF. They know how many people were deported because they deported those people, ffs.

You think that all illegal immigrants are deported? 😄 How can they all be deported if they slip through the border and disappear into America?
