Poor Joe Biden. The career politician simply cannot catch a break from progressives on the 2020 Democratic primary presidential campaign trail. The latest thorn in Biden's side stems from his years serving under his "best friend" President Barack Obama. It is somewhat of an odd fact, but President Trump's immediate predecessor actually deported more individuals than he has so far at this point in office. Sadly, for Biden however, the progressives are now calling for what is tantamount to open borders. Thus they are turning even on the former Messiah of the Democratic Party due to his enforcement of immigration law and saying that Biden must answer for the actions Obama office took.
As pointed out by the RNC's Steve Guest, Mayor Bill de Blasio slammed Biden on CNN today saying that he "absolutely" should explain why the United States deported millions of illegal aliens when he was vice president. The answer, of course, for conservatives is pretty simple -- they were here illegally. But, Democrats, in their ever desire to inch increasingly more leftist, now believe it racist to deport any illegal alien.

As Politico reported this week , progressives around the country have already said Biden needs to take responsibility for his actions.
via Poltico:
Biden needs to be accountable, said Joe Enriquez Henry, vice president of the Midwestern region of League of United Latin American Citizens, which is meeting for its annual convention in Milwaukee this week. Biden needs to make it clear, if he wants to be president, that he has compassion and understanding and he needs to ask for forgiveness.
Biden, for his part, has defended the deportation of 3 million individuals by saying that "Barack has been one heck of a job."
The Kenyanesian Usurper inflated his deportation numbers by counting border turnarounds of Mexicans as deportations when they had never been counted as such before.
Why is Biden putting himself through this?
I don’t think this guy seriously wanted anything to do with this mess.
What? You mean Joe can’t have it both ways?
LOL. Of course Obama, being the Anointed One of the Left, will never have this held against him, but poor old creepy Uncle Joe’s campaign is pretty much toast.
So if they trash Creepy Joe they run the risk of exposing a truth that takes some of their false claims away from Trump. What a dilemma!
“The Kenyanesian Usurper inflated his deportation numbers by counting border turnarounds of Mexicans as deportations when they had never been counted as such before”
And that inflated number will be the count that his leftist opponents will use. How ironic.
Doesnt he get to keep campaign funds if he is unsuccessful?
The lesson is, don’t agree with President Trump, ever. Even retroactively.
But yet, “somehow”, Biden is running nine points ahead against Donald Trump in the latest polls?
Yeah, okay, sure....
Deporters!
i foresee some more apologies in Bidn’s immediate future ... not hard to make that prediction because that was a given the first time Bidn apologized for anything in his past ...
Bidn is now on a permanent apology tour ...
I keep hearing that obama deported soooo many people but my question is...what were their backgrounds? Were they Christians, Caucasians or both? He sure didn’t deport because he was trying to enforce the law. He was a hateful, malicious America hater who set out to destroy us. So I question that deportation claim.
Exactly.
Exactly.
You don’t really think he deported mooslims, do you? They were after all his favorite people.
Judge Gee’s 20-day catch-and-release ruling (was “without unnecessary delay” before that) was July 2015, very late in O’s second term. And a lot of O swamp office holders when Trump took office. Wonder how O would have fared fighting such a headwind.
Biden: Vote for me if you want, but if you don’t, don’t be mad, I’m sorry.
“Why is Biden putting himself through this? I dont think this guy seriously wanted anything to do with this mess.”
Joe appears something short of making a serious effort. Perhaps he’s being smart not doing otherwise so early. But I think “someone’s” strategy is for him to keep his hand in just enough to prevent other participants from becoming a solid choice in the coming 6-9 months. At the end of that period, Joe will claim a health or personal issue and withdraw. Just in time for the democratic convention in July ‘20, in rides a magical fresh face to save US all.
But what do I know?
One thing for sure is we’re experiencing the largely media created “The Continuing Campaign”. And ohhh do the media & pols love spending other peoples money.
