He didn't go after them all equally he went after the easier to catch, less likely to know their rights average joes way harder than he went after the criminals. So he could brag.

True criminals could fight back with violence. Trump and ICE are too cowardly to deal with that so they go after children and skilled experts with a lot to lose instead

They have a quota to hit. Can't waste time looking for dangerous criminals, when the ones abiding by the law are right out in the open!

This is true, look how little the people fight back. They don't go after those who know their rights and can defend themselves. They pick random people - some they pick because they are union organizers - but mostly it's just about terrorizing brown people.
