Here is something that should shock you and all the other diehard Trump supporters
The results are actually quite shocking. Despite deploying staff from other agencies to assist in enforcement activities and ordering active-duty military to facilitate removals at the border, daily removals have failed to reach even the levels achieved by the previous administration. Indeed, President Trump’s removal record is growing worse with time rather than improving.
As we noted in our initial report, Trump’s daily removals during the period of January 26-February 8 averaged just
693. This is 6.5 percent below the higher daily average of
742 under former President Biden. Now with an additional four weeks (28 days) added to the monitoring period, Trump’s daily removals for the period January 26 through March 8 averaged only
661 removals each day. This number is not only below its initial removal rate, but 10.9 percentage points lower than Biden’s daily average of
742 .
and as far as crime is concerned:
Why Trump isn’t to thank for the crime decline
Despite Trump’s claim that “the previous administration
allowed lawlessness to permeate our country,” the crime decline long predated his second term. After three decades of mostly continuous
decline, crime spiked in 2020 amid the COVID-19 pandemic. But after a narrative of out-of-control crime firmly took hold, especially during the
2022 midterms, crime rates began
subsiding rapidly in 2023.
Looking at
crime rates across the country and across categories of crime, it is clear that the decline in 2025 is a continuation of a downward trend that began in 2023. Trump’s public safety policies do not reflect what we know about public safety. His
war on immigrants and
funding terminations to
evidence-based violence-prevention strategies are both more likely to make the country more dangerous than less. It is also far too early to see any changes from many of the administration’s actions related to crime—like its
executive order on policing or changes in
federal prosecutions.
