Ah yes, again with the "democrats are no different than republicans" trope. The exact kind of wrongheaded and ignorant belief from the left that delivered Trump into the executive branch in the first place.
Yes, Obama was not perfect on civil liberties, but there has absolutely been an uptick in these kind of instances since Trump took over. Obama had no Muslim ban. And in general, Trump has given more delegated authority to CBP/DHS and other departments.
Maybe try to put things into perspective? We will never get 100% "pure" politicians and if the left keep staying home or voting for people like Jill Stein, then Republicans will continue to dominate.

- travmatt 9y agoMy favorite are the people who shilled for Jill stein all campaign, saying democrats are no different than republicans - then blamed democrats for republicans stripping the ahca, saying they should have stopped them. Rania Khalek is a prime example of this type of non ironic hot take.
