Throughout eight years in office, the Obama administration logged more than 3.1 million ICE deportations, according to Syracuse's Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse. The peak was fiscal year 2012, when more than 407,000 people were removed.
By comparison, the first Trump administration maxed out at deporting 269,000 people in 2019, according to the same TRAC data set. Across four years, the Trump administration recorded fewer than 932,000 deportations.
The Trump administration had deported about 200,000 people over four months, border czar Tom Homan said in late May.
That is still less than the number of deportations in a similar period under President Joe Biden, which the White House credits to fewer people coming to the border.
Trump called on ICE officers in a June 15 Truth Social post to "do all in their power to achieve the very important goal of delivering the single largest Mass Deportation Program in History."
But he also stopped with leisure/hotel and farm deportations, didn't he?
Trump and Obama = team MAGA
