    feels like you’re asking me whether I’m believing statistics over your anecdotes. I am. I am believing statistics over your anecdotes.

      Okay, so you don’t have a deep familiarity with the topic. It’s okay, I’m not really an expert either. But, I’ve looked at the full statistics (I sent you a table), which add some extremely important facts to the “deporter-in-chief” quick one-liner criticism. And also, I have some secondhand experience with it, which is usually a pretty valuable thing to have when the anecdotes are used in addition to statistics.

      So, where did you get your information? Is it just that you know the term “deporter-in-chief” and that deportations went up, because everyone knows those things, and that’s it as far as what you know about the topic?

          Fair enough. If I apologize, will you answer the question I asked three times already, and address the statistics I sent and what I said about it?

              I’m gonna take that as confirmation that you do, in fact, know literally one fact about Obama’s whole immigration policy, and you’re just planning to aggressively repeat it to other people and tell them that that’s all they need to know about it, too.

              Best of luck
