I find that consistent. The ACLU calls both monstrous. Obama set the precedent for using ICE in the current way, Trump continued Obamas policies. The two are similar.
If someone says they condemn both, I respect that. The person has integrity.
If someone says they condemn neither ( as I do ), I also respect that. They are acknowledging what the ACLU and others say — the presidents have used ICE in similar ways.
If someone condemns only one and is silent about the other, to me that signals a lack of integrity. I don’t see a logical way to excuse only one. It doesn’t seem possible to tolerate the behavior of one while condemning the other. Read the ACLU articles if you need evidence of the similarities.
You say Trump is 10 times worse than Obama, I see nothing that even remotely suggests this is true. If you have any articles to show that back this up, please show them.
My apologies.
Let me ask directly: do you condemn Obamas use of ICE, as the ACLU does?
Do you condemn Trump's use of ICE, that is 10 times worse than Obama's? Yes or No.
No, I condemn neither.
