Obama spent his second term being rather lax about immigration enforcement, but let’s give him some credit. Over 3 million were deported while he was president, but some came back and some left on their own; the Associated Press estimated that 11 million people remained here illegally in 2016. Obama’s half-hearted enforcement that supposedly focused primarily on recent entries and criminal aliens didn’t solve the problem. By deporting so many, he showed that he was capable of addressing the problem with greater effectiveness, but left President Trump with a massive mess to clean up. That is why the sanctuary city murder of Kate Steinle in San Francisco became an issue in 2016, and why MS-13 has surged as an issue in his second term, as the “unaccompanied minors” that received so much leniency from Obama turned out to have dangerous criminals in the mix.
