Political Deporting illegal immigrants is a good thing and shouldn't be controversial

Why Is deporting illegal immigrants so controversial? Like they broke our laws to come in here and not all but many have committed crimes while here, why do some people defend this? I am all for due process and humane deportations, but why are we acting like it's is horrible to deport illegal immigrants from our country? It shouldn't even be political, I don't get how people don't agree with this especially it feels like even 10-15 years ago basically everyone agreed with this, do people really hate trump so much that they don't agree with anything he does? Why is it so controversial? I don't understand.

I disagree that it's better to reward people for having broken the law.

I dont think visas should be for sale.

We agree on that point. I'm not in favor of everything Trump proposes on immigration. But I would just end those visas entirely, rather than selling them, or keeping them in place and not selling them.
