No one can be watching this Davos speech and reach any conclusion but that the President of the United States is mentally disturbed and that something is deeply wrong with him. This is both embarrassing and extremely dangerous.

"ICE is not the problem, it's Joe Biden's open borders that caused this!"
Biden deported 1.1 million people. (and turned away 3 million during Covid.)
Obama deported 3.1 million.
Without any need for ICE to lose their shit.
This has nothing to do with deportation and everything to do with obedience.
