> The right causes more damage in the short term in my opinion, things like immigrant detention camps
I'm not so sure that immigrant detention camps are specifically a "right" issue. Mandatory detention was initially authorized by Bill Clinton in 1996.
It's certainly gotten a lot more media attention (and executive Trumpeting) under the current administration, but the roots are by no means new nor exclusively right, recent media and meme focus aside.
