If Harris had won the 2024 election, do you honestly think she would be mass deporting immigrants without a trial, starting a trade war with China, attempt to cut funding for FEMA, etc?

Of course, look at her predecessor. Obama massively increased ICE, deportations, and did a pivot to asia.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't the senate controlled by the right? Wasn't it them that pushed for mass deportations?

I suppose you do have a point though, Harris wouldn't need to be the only one who wins to make an actual difference, even if she would have just upheld the status quo that led to the rise in fascism. Still would have preferred that over what Trump is doing atm
