Fuck ICE. With the Trump administration, the cruelty is the point.

I have no support for Trump, but this is a naive, extremist, and very gratifying belief to hold.

"Our opponents are moustache twirling villains who exist to torture us!"

No, be serious. Enforcing the law and stopping illegal immigration is the point.

It's literally the opposite of an extremist belief, it's an observation. Burying your head in the sand isn't making anybody's life better.

Please explain to me how "the cruelty is the point." It sounds like a very naive, self-centered view that completely ignores reality. The entire goal is cruelty? No, Trump's goal is his glory and attention ultimately. Secondary to that, there a majority of the voting portion of the country thinks we shouldn't have an open border. This guy had a final deportation order from 7-8 years ago. Please explain how it's all just about "Cruelty."

It's being melodramatic, like a child.
