> Trump's immigration Gestapo

Actually, they're more like Obama's. 

"During Barack Obama's presidency from 2009 to 2017, it is estimated that approximately 3 million immigrants were deported."

"According to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) data, approximately 1.7 million immigrants have been deported during 
Trump's time in office."


Let's not forget Clinton's Gestapo and Elián González.

In the pre-dawn hours of Saturday, April 22, 2000, agents of the United States Border Patrol's special BORTAC unit, as part of an 
operation in which more than 130 Immigration and Naturalization Service personnel took part, approached the house, knocked on the 
door, and identified themselves. When no one responded, they entered. At the same time, pepper-spray and mace were employed 
against persons outside who attempted to interfere. In the confusion, Armando Gutierrez called in Alan Diaz, of the Associated 
Press, to enter the house and enter a room with González, his great uncle's wife Angela Lázaro, her niece, the niece's young son, 
and Donato Dalrymple (one of the two men who had rescued him from the ocean). They waited in the room listening to agents 
searching the house. Diaz took a widely publicized photograph of a border patrol agent confronting Dalrymple and the boy. INS 
subsequently flew six-year-old Elián out of Miami aboard a Justice Prisoner and Alien Transportation System aircraft.

INS also stated in the days after the raid that they had identified as many as two dozen persons who were "prepared to thwart any 
government operation", some of whom had concealed weapons while others had criminal records.

Approximately 100 people protested against the raid as it took place, with some calling the INS agents "assassins". Then-New York 
City Mayor Rudy Giuliani described BORTAC agents involved in the seizure of Elián as "storm troopers" at least six times. Federal 
Law Enforcement Officers Association reacted with "strong disgust and dismay" to the Nazi imagery and demanded Giuliani's 
apology. Hillary Clinton, then running against Giuliani for the 2000 United States Senate election in New York, agreed with FLEOA 
in asking for an apology. Giuliani refused to apologize, although he stated his criticism was aimed at President Clinton and 
Attorney General Reno. He later withdrew from the race for unrelated reasons.

Public opinion about the INS raid on the Miami González's house was widely polarized. There were two major focuses in media 
coverage of the event: the raid and the family reunions. A Time magazine issue showed a photo of a joyful González being reunited 
with his father (the caption says "Papa!"), while Newsweek ran an issue that focused on the raid, entitled "Seizing Elián".

"Trump Derangement Syndrome" Is a Real Mental Condition

All you need to know about "Trump Derangement Syndrome," or TDS.

"Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is a mental condition in which a person has been driven effectively insane due to their dislike 
of Donald Trump, to the point at which they will abandon all logic and reason."

Justin Raimondo, the editorial director of Antiwar.com, wrote a piece in the Los Angeles Times in 2016 that broke TDS down into 
three distinct phases or stages:

"In the first stage of the disease, victims lose all sense of proportion. The president-elect's every tweet provokes a firestorm, 
as if 140 characters were all it took to change the world."

"The mid-level stages of TDS have a profound effect on the victim's vocabulary: Sufferers speak a distinctive language consisting 
solely of hyperbole."

"As TDS progresses, the afflicted lose the ability to distinguish fantasy from reality."

The Point here is simple: TDS is, in the eyes of its adherents, the knee-jerk opposition from liberals to anything and everything 
Trump does. If Trump announced he was donating every dollar he's ever made, TDS sufferers would suggest he was up to something 
nefarious, according to the logic of TDS. There's nothing - not. one. thing. - that Trump could do or say that would be received 
positively by TDSers.

The history of Trump Derangement Syndrome actually goes back to the early 2000s - a time when the idea of Trump as president was 
a punch line for late-night comics and nothing more.

Wikipedia traces its roots to "Bush Derangement Syndrome" - a term first coined by the late conservative columnist Charles 
Krauthammer back in 2003. The condition, as Krauthammer defined it, was "the acute onset of paranoia in otherwise normal people 
in reaction to the policies, the presidency - nay - the very existence of George W. Bush."
