Typical DJT derangement. When DJT does it = Bad. When Obama was the founding father = Let the man cook.
As no one on the left could/would answer this simple question; which I thought would be well known knowledge, I did a quick google search.
Here are articles from left leaning sources. Just to put everything in perspective, Obama deported 3-5M+ during his tenure. DJT has deported about 150K in his first 100 dys or will hit about 500k for the year. He deported less than 1M his first term.
Salient points
1. Obama did armed home raids and deported families
2. 75% deported had minor (aka speeding tickets) or no criminal records
3. Obama continues to hold the record for deportation
4. 75% was expelled without due process.
5. Obama normalized mass deportation. He was the chief and original found father of mass deportation with particular emphasis on armed raids of law abiding illegals then giving the majority no due process.
So unless you were complaining about Obama, I really don't want to hear it now that DJT essentially is Obama lite. The left new mantra, " the sky is falling, the sky is falling, orange man bad. They sky is falling." is getting old.

New Reports Undermine Obama Administration’s Claims About Deportations - American Immigration Council
The principal finding of the

Obama Has Deported More People Than Any Other President
Between 2009 and 2015 his administration has removed more than 2.5 million people through immigration orders, which doesn’t include the number of people who "self-deported" or were turned away and/or returned to their home country at the border by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP).
In fact, they have deported more than the sum of all the presidents of the 20th century.

"Obama Built the Structures for Trump": A Terrifying Legacy of Mass Deportation
Obama will go down in history as the US president under whom the highest number of deportations has occurred — more than under all of the presidents in the century before him, combined.
Unzueta, immigration advocate, argued that
under Obama, mass deportation has become “normalized,” giving a façade of legality to the process and convincing the public that it is possible to “deport people humanely.”
“The
Obama administration has built the structures for Trump. All of the programs that Obama has put in place — the Priority Enforcement Program, the ways immigration enforcement can enter people’s homes, the raids — that infrastructure will be passed on to the next president,” she said.
