So in the real world, reputation does matter. Even if you believe Obama was "harsh", he gave the impression that he was following the spirit of the rules. Heck, he even tried to treat the deportees with a modicum of respect and opened up Family centers for the detained (an unpopular action by the right) - they're human after all.
Meanwhile, you have multiple Supreme court Injunctions -- a right leaning one i might add, with at least one or two picked out specifically by Trump himself - being ignored by the current administration, along with multiple Constitutional violations (unreasonable search and seizure)
You might not agree with the world is doing, these riots are a proportional response to when people feel they're being trampled on. I imagine you might be on the streets when your parents get executed for asking if someone who was pushed over is okay.
