The Spin
Republican narrative
The deportations represent a necessary security measure to protect Americans from dangerous gang members who are perpetrating a veritable invasion of the United States. The government is simply using various investigative tools to properly identify gang members through law enforcement, social media, and their activities.
Democratic narrative
The mass deportation violates human rights and due process, targeting innocent individuals based on discriminatory profiling of their tattoos and nationality while ignoring legitimate asylum claims and separating families without providing evidence of actual gang affiliations. The Trump administration's immigration dragnet is brazen, reckless, and inhumane.
