Is this president extremely concerned about drug dealers and gangs in the US?

Why is he pardoning a drug trafficker?

Basically he’ll do anything to get the votes he needs, there’s no morality behind it.

So that's the interesting thing about it; he gets the votes from it, so apparently many people agree with him? Only in public nobody seems to agree with him? How is that possible?

Most of his voters have no idea what his campaign or promises are, and that's intentional, see mexican voters apparently surprised by his anti-mexican stance now.

Source?

And it seems people don't particularly like Trump, but vote on him because he seems to be the only one that wants to do something about illegal immigrants:

And I understand that it's even frustrating for legal immigrants, who waited for years to get citizenship, that illegal immigrants don't have to do anything and get it right away.

Well during Biden's administration it was like that. Now that Trump came into office they already stopped coming.

Here they explain why immigrants rather chose the illegal path opposed to the legal path during Biden's administration.

Now even before Trump came into office, the stream of illegal immigrants have already almost completely stopped:

So yeah, we can argue about the details, but it is clear that during Biden's administration it was way too easy for illegal immigrants to get into the US, which is unfair for the legal immigrants that went through much more trouble to get there.

Aside from that, the constant flow of illegal immigrants also caused a lot of issues in the states near the borders, and obviously for the country as a whole.
