  Sure.  If you can buy that Trump won't go after "hard-working families",
  you can buy anything.

    They never claimed they wouldn't pursue deportation on every illegal alien.
  They said they would prioritize the 600,000 or so illegal alien criminals
  that Biden allowed into the country without so much as a routine background
  check, but that ultimately anyone who is here illegally is subject to
  deportation.

Yet you wonder why some protest ICE arresting even The Dirty Dozen...

 I don't wonder it. I acknowledge there are people who believe that the United
States, alone among all the nations of the world, for some reason has no right
to control its own borders or enforce any kind of immigration law. It's
nonsense, it's ridiculous, it's a recipe for national suicide, and it's the
single most significant reason why Trump won the election, but I don't pretend
these people don't exist.
 I do, however, wonder why *you* seem to be one of them.

You seem self-blinded to the complicating factor of humanitarianism ...which, to varying degrees, *everyone's* saddled with.

  And, of course, this issue isn't only -- or even mostly -- about "laws".

    Well, it certainly wasn't about laws during the Biden term, when he and his
  government violated an entire title of the U.S. Code and essentially erased
  the southern border.

Yes.  As I said, it's not solely about the "rule of law".
