There’s really no other way to do mass deportations though.
Admittedly while a non-significant number of those deportees were turned away at the border itself, another key difference is that Obama didn't hire record numbers of barely qualified (40-50 days worth of training) people and then send them to occupy American cities.
It is well known that the Obama administration counted turning around people at the border as a "deportation".

The only cuts from the surge hire training were spanish language and some driving courses, spanish alone consumed 12-weeks. None of the other training material was reduced. In the cases of Good and Pretti, neither agent was a surge hire. This is nonsense rhetoric attempting to delegitimize ICE agents performing lawful duties.
But either way, that's irrelevant to my point. My point is that it's the reprehensible behavior of these people that are causing the backlash, not the deportation part.
