This is where I vehemently disagree. Just because you're not going to be one of the first ones they target doesn't mean it's no big deal. They're talking about using our local police to round millions of people up and put them in camps, and you're going to sit there and tell me it's not the end of the world? Get the fuck out of here.

Your mistake is believing any politician, Trump included. He says crazy stuff to win votes, not to actually implement it. This is true of libs in general as well.

You haven't been paying attention. Trump tried to implement this stuff last time and was stopped by people loyal to the Constitution. ALL of those people are gone. He is surrounded by people who WILL carry out his orders. Trump rarely learns, but he has absolutely learned a lesson when it comes to staffing.

This is true of libs in general as well

This is a ridiculous attempt to both sides. Give us an example. What compares to "we're going to detain and deport millions of people"?

I’m not interested in political theatre, I judge based on outcomes because it’s impossible to know intent.

In Poland libs were very up their arms about human rights abuse against migrants on the Belarusian border. Just months after they got back into power they formally suspended ability to request asylum (mandated by Geneva convention and EU basic rights charter). Similar stuff in France as well.
