Glad you can see it that way. Even your average liberal agrees that deporting violent criminals is a good idea – what we oppose is the idea that the government can accuse anyone of being a violent criminal without evidence, punish them without scrutiny, and even make them disappear.
Not all 341 million are required, but other than that, yes, successful protests and other forms of resistance have always been about people “all agreeing to do the same thing.”

Probably figured they could get married real quick and everything would be fine, “Trump’s only going after the thieves and rapists”.
That’s exactly who he is trying to appeal to.
It’s part of the strategy – publicly condemn people as being the type of person that is easy to hate so that there is support for the punishment.
If he started disappearing people without giving any reason, his supporters would be more likely to take note of that and question him. “Violent criminals and terrorists” on the other hand, that the people can get behind, apparently without question.
