OP please post a link, I can't believe they are this bad at math, unless they mean people are now "illegally" crossing out of the US
Edit: this is real, oh myyy! https://www.whitehouse.gov/remarks/2025/02/remarks-by-president-trump-before-cabinet-meeting/
I'm guessing they mean an over 100% increase of the decrease of the period-over-period amount.
It's not necessarily wrong, but it is, in fact, a really, really stupid way of communicating information, which is very on brand of them and their supporters.
If this is real, then that's some North Korea shit right there.
It's real, but it's quoting Trump.
And what official body is in charge of keeping the official record and count of illegal immigrants crossing the border? Seems to me it's most likely DHS and ice reporting and isn't it in their own best interest to inflate the numbers or deflate them to appease the Nazis?
Step 1: Turns country towards fascism
Step 2: ???
Step 3:
Profit?Genocide?If it's over 100%, does that mean he's pushing out people in the US? 🤔
Yes actually, and he's making some crossings super legal to compensate further.
What percent of immigration is illegal? I'm beginning to suspect Republicans are actually pro immigration (gotta have those slaves) but need to be loudly against it, hence the crackdown on illegal immigrants
Trump has (so far) been deporting at a slower rate than Obama's or Biden s highest rate. He seems to be mostly making a big show to discourage border crossings. It's kinda working, but even regular travelers on tourist's visas are getting the 9th degree when entering the country. My daughter's UK boyfriend was grilled for 90 minutes with questions like, "Why don't you have more underwear packed?"
Lol illegal crossings caught / reported. The majority of illegals come over legally and just overstay their vacation, education, work, business, or deplomat visa. Why bother crossing illegally when you can just request a vacation visa or day visa and just disappear into the country. (Yes those without passports will have to sneak across but it's way easier than the Trump administration will have you believe.) Yes thousands get caught but millions go back and forth without. Yes most go back without needing the US government to force them.
Numbers nobody has seen before. Lol.
Every Trump action is appearently the best ones ever made in the history of civilization.
If Jesus would come back, he would be second to Trump in how amazing he is.
Second place? Believe it or not, it's also Trump.

this is not political at all. beside the fact that the white house is making the joke! next time the white house is funny, I'll post on political humor, sorry
So people are fleeing the US? That's not the brag you think it is...

Like eleventeen, thirty-twelve, and all those.

It’s from one of Donald’s word vomit speeches
So... how do you reduce something like people crossing a border beyond one hundred percent ?
People trying to get out of the country, I guess
They're crossing on the opposite direction now
And bringing additional people with them!
Deportations
Hint: math
For some reason, people will sometimes flip the fraction when calculating decreasing percentages, so this roughly means that the old number of crossings is beyond one hundred percent greater than the current number of border crossings. It's really dumb
American refugees trying to enter Mexico and Canada.
This can't be real, right
It is, unfortunately, real. https://www.whitehouse.gov/remarks/2025/02/remarks-by-president-trump-before-cabinet-meeting/
Look at the front page, and also great articles such as "Biden Spent Millions on Transgender Animal Experiments" and "President Trump is Leading with Peace Through Strength."
~~Looks like it isn’t real.

I’ve been corrected. Is is real. It makes sense that they were just documenting his word salad.

Don't know what everyone is so worried about. Look at all this bigly progress!! /s
And look how progressive they are, putting a Muskrat in the White House!
(psss....psss...Europe, wanna coordinate a party?)
Nobody wants to move to a shithole country I guess.
So what they're saying is that everyone is leaving the US, can't imagine why
What's the link? I'd like to check this page.Fake...WTF... Not fake...
It wouldnt be funny as a fake
...I don't think it's funny either way, to be honest... Just weird.
To each their own, of course.

It sounds like a crazy person because it's a Trump transcript.
Thank you!
Math are hard.
s.
Math are hard but maths is harder. American math is 20% easier than English maths. And yes I have seen that "[UK flag] English (Traditional); [US flag] English (Simplified)" gag.
Six, seven, eight; lock the gate. One, two, three; turn the key. Thirty, fifty, ten; my dirty shifty friend?
Hmmm, I bet it's 146%
