How is it a king when the supreme court is providing checks and balances? Like i said, doesn't have to be a majority vote in scotus.

SCOTUS moves slow.
What you're proposing is a president that can write more laws in 1 year than SCOTUS could review in his entire term.

A lot of the Obama "deportations" were people being turned around at the border being counted as deportations.
Obama had over 3 million illegals picked up, within the U.S & deported. More than any other president.
As usual, you don't know wtf you're talking about, or just a flat out liar.

Democratic Presidents have a lot of power.
They can let in Mexicans.
They can illegally forgive student loans.
They can run guns to Mexican gangs.
They can put Catholics in jail who protest at abortion clinics.
They can sic the IRS on Republican non profits.
Republican Presidents can’t do shite.

It's just surprising when people are pissed that he can't act like a dictator. Wanting the executive branch to just rule by decree unchecked is very short sighted.
You’re bright enough to know that he’s getting roadblocks because of who he is.
He hasn’t done anything different than any other President but bc your ilk doesn’t like him and OMB, that’s your go-to explanation.
He’s stacking up W’s on immigration because he’s flying within the law.

Here’s a fig got who doesn’t know Obama changed the definition of “deport” to make his numbers look good.

I would like a moment for rebuttal.

Not everyone who voted for Trump did so because they agreed with every policy of his, there are plenty of single issue voters, and voters who only vote based on a handful of issues.

One distinct feature of the record number of deportations is the increasing share of deportations by U.S. Customs and Border Protection after border apprehension. In 2013, 25% of all deportations were carried out by the agency, up from 17% in 2012.
There is a difference between hunting someone down in Nebraska and deporting them and deporting someone immediately after you catch them crossing the border. These types of deportations increased significantly under Obama.

rump probably isn't doing himself any favors by sending people to prisons in El Salvador. Send them back to their home country and you might get less blow back. Or at least send them to Mexico since they border the U.S.
Meh. I think its sending a clear message. If you try to cross over illegally, you will not just get a "free ride home". You wont knlw where the frick you are going. Might be El Salvador. Might be Sudan. Might be North Korea.
Sooner or later they will get the picture and then you wont have to deport anyone

Yall don't listen to this bs
The difference is expulsion, which is how they were marked and weren't counted in the deportation figures.
We expelled twice what we deported, at least.
We were much more active under Obama, deporting within the U.S.
Like I said, you don't know what you're talking about, or a liar trying to make your hero look better.

Gaslighting. Good job.

I think this is about to end soon. A few GOP guys are writing up some legislation that will nip this bullshite with a quickness

Jesus, in what fricking way?
The last 4 Presidents deported MILLIONS of illegals.
After the last 4 years you assholes sure do have zero self awareness.

Exactly who disfavors sending scumbags to Salvadoran prisons?
