What a load of shit. What time period are you referring to when you believed Democrats were pro-immigrant? Let’s factcheck that shit.
Even Obama deported way more people than Trump, built the immigrant cages, and vastly expanded ICE. Clinton was equally anti-immigrant.
Off the top of my head there is DACA and DAPA. Clinton ran on closing private immigration detention centers.
And Obama ran on closing gitmo. What they run on doesn’t fucking matter. It matters what they do.
I recall Obama signing an executive order first thing when he was elected. Congress overrode it.
