These numbers are not referring to detention deaths, though. They are total deaths from illegal crossings. Desert deaths. River deaths. Etc.
During Bush and Obama, they were mainly Mexican men. The demographics have changed, too. To try to compare raw numbers is disingenuous, at best. With Breitbart, bet on a lie.

Obama did not have concentration camps for hopeful immigrants

The “Concentration Camps” Have Existed Since Clinton
Bush and Obama Crack Down
Following 9/11, xenophobia was running high in the country, and for an understandable reason. But George Bush took Clinton’s work a step further. In 2003, as a division of the new Department of Homeland Security, he formed the Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency, which we now know as ICE.
Under Bush, the number of immigrants in detention doubled again, reaching 30,000. He also saw the beginning of Secure Communities, a program that helped to identify, hold, and deport illegal immigrants.
Unfortunately, Barack Obama took the actions of Clinton and Bush and blew them through the roof. In the first two years of his presidency, Obama expanded the number of Secure Communities from 14 to 1210. In that time, the program caused an additional 140,000 detentions and 72,000 deportations. But in total, even this is a drop in the bucket for Obama.
Over the course of his presidency, President Obama deported more illegal immigrants than any other president in history. In fact, his 2.9 million people deported is, so far, at a higher rate than even President Trump. It far exceeds the amount (2 million) that the government deported in 105 years from 1892 to 1997. But it gets worse; the immigrants in detention often faced grossly inhumane conditions that rival or even surpass that of the Trump administration.
Obama-era Inhumanity
Ocasio-Cortez has fervently defended her accusation regarding concentration camps. With it, she appears to strongly blame the Trump administration for them, as her numerous tweets on the issue suggest. The facts contradict her assertion; Trump actually inherited the problem. Though he is certainly making blunders in regards to it, he did not start this.
In 2015, NPR broke a story that showed still pictures of illegal immigrants in detention centers. Many wrapped themselves in foil space blankets, not having anything else to keep warm in the frigid camps (which many Spanish-speaking detainees have not-so-affectionately dubbed “las hieleras”, the freezers). The centers also had trash strewn about them, and it was quite obvious that the guards cared little for the wellbeing of the detainees.
Around the same time, the American Immigration Council and the American Civil Liberties Union have sued the president for the actions on the border. They state that numerous detainees were denied the food and water that they needed to comfortably survive. They also did not have access to legal advice or medical help, according to the suit.

You POSs have only started bitchin under Trump!

So what's with the usual obsession with me RB? Don't tell me you don't think the idiot with the race-baiting avatar is a troll. I'm not a troll because I tell trolls and assholes off.
The conditions are harsh because our resources are overwhelmed by the sheer numbers of immigrants.
Seems we all agree it’s been that way for years. Was it ‘Trump’s crisis’ when the same harsh conditions were in place under Obama? Or under Bush II, for that matter?
How about we start calling it ‘congress’s crisis’? Since they are responsible for fixing our immigration laws such that these poor people will be *discouraged* instead of encouraged to take themselves and their kids—or someone else’s kids, on a dangerous journey where people may die in our hands. Assuming they survive being raped or otherwise abused by the cartels.
Why don’t they do that?
Coup has started. First of many steps. Impeachment will follow ultimately~WB attorney Mark Zaid, January 2017
