The Spin
Republican narrative
From Trump's designation of MS-13 as a foreign terrorist organization, to the coordination of agencies under his watch, and the freedom he's granted cops to effectively carry out their jobs, the president is fulfilling his promise of ridding the country of dangerous immigrants who are in the United States illegally.
Democratic narrative
Assuming the person the administration arrested is who law enforcement says he is, this accomplishment doesn't cancel out the numerous unconstitutional deportations and detentions the administration has recently carried out. There have been tens of thousands of people arrested without explanation.
