Some might. Some might have voted for Trump

There's a 0.00000% chance and progressive immigration activist ever votes for Trump. That's an empty threat if there ever was one.

It's the same reason why Obama was "Deporter-in-chief" to his base during his administration.

Obama was no such thing. His DHS fudged the numbers to make it look like he was doing something so as to avoid any popular backlash. Any performative complaints from the proggie base were just that - performative.

WASHINGTON — Immigration activists have sharply criticized President Obama for a rising volume of deportations, labeling him the “deporter in chief” and staging large protests that have harmed his standing with some Latinos, a key group of voters for Democrats.
But the portrait of a steadily increasing number of deportations rests on statistics that conceal almost as much as they disclose. A closer examination shows that immigrants living illegally in most of the continental U.S. are less likely to be deported today than before Obama came to office, according to immigration data.
Expulsions of people who are settled and working in the United States have fallen steadily since his first year in office, and are down more than 40% since 2009.

Even the LA Times called BS on it.
