We may never fully know the cost of MIDWAY BLITZ, which lasted just about two months, but it was surely tens of millions of dollars — probably millions of dollars a day, in fact — and in the most concentrated and violent set of raids over the better part of two months, the Trump administration managed to arrest roughly the number of people it hopes to arrest and deport every single day across the nation. These are PR stunts — not a serious strategy. The terror is real; the impact is a rounding error.
Losing in the courts, losing on the streets, losing at their stated mission while inflicting terror on communities. For what?
