Do the rubes really hear “300 college kids deported” and think that does… anything?
Yes. It does a lot. I have a cousin and a brother-in-law who support Trump because of this. Yeah, they’re both racist. And unfortunately, they’re not the only people I’ve met who share this view. Unfortunately, the reality of the situation is that there are a lot more racists in this country – from both parties – than we’d like to admit, and there are a lot of people who low-key support Trump doing this even if they won’t admit it publicly.
Trump doing this is giving him at least some cover for all of the other shit he’s doing. There are some out there who are willing to at least put up with Trump’s bullshit if it means that he keeps getting rid of …them. Someone else posted another article about Trump’s polling numbers being slightly up, and I’d bet large sums of money that his deportation orders are almost entirely why.
And that benefits who and how?

The stupidity is astounding.

It’s more like the rubes listen how about terrorists are being stopped from doing their dastardly plans, and why did the dems not do that before?
