Chopping off a finger is better than chopping off an arm.

I don't know that I agree.

The only difference I see here is that, under Democrats, it's primarily ICE and the cops doing the Nazi things and not CBP, and you'll recall that after George Floyd was killed Biden used his next SOTU to publicly call for more police militarization.

Also, go look up who first appointed Tom Homan, for a very good example.
