It's almost as if the message matters


Like you said, there was actually plenty of border security built up during the Obama administration. And record number of illegals deported (not self-deported, actually rounded up and sent back) during the same time frame.

But then you get Trump (and plenty of other alt-righters) standing up there and preaching about bad hombres and walls and terrorists and "they tuk er jobs!" simultaneously shitting on legitimate security measures the political opposition was taking and whipping up good old fashioned racist nationalism. Because "winning".

So Trumpshow won. And they very same groups who mostly sat quietly by while Obama actually did things are screaming and shouting about DT's promises and making it more difficult. Because politics.
