I do respect your objection to the policy. However, I see NO evidence that this administration is going to take the significant actions necessary to reunite families that they have broken up due to the separate court decisions made on separate family members. Even officials admit that an important percentage of these separations are likely to be permanent as tracking people in a foreign country is not easy, especially when those in question are in desperate circumstance and quite possibly in fear of that government. Plus, it's not clear what has happened to children that have been deported. There are even claims that deported older children have been facilitated by labor traffickers. I responded, because I'm far from ready to accept this point as likely to be resolved. Ever.
I don't think that Trump or any politician wants their fingerprints on this PR hot potato. In addition to the kids, I feel sorry for the people who are immediately in charge of caring for thousands of crying, young children. PS: Thanks for clarifying the plural of FLOTUS.
You really just have to sit back and laugh at the leftist evolution of this saga. It went from being ignored during the years that Obama did it... ...to being akin to a holocaust when it was done under Trump... ...to denying that it ever happened under Obama... ...to grossly over exaggerating the rarity its happening at all... ...to posting photos depicting harsh conditions... ...to discovering said photos were actually from Obama's era... ...to pretending the photos weren't circulated by MSM en masse... ...back to denying it happened during Obama's era... ...to demanding "action"... ...to accusing Republicans of inaction... ...to Chuck Schumer refusing to sponsor a Republican bill that would correct it... ...to Trump having to step in and do the job Congressional Democrats wont do... ...which is where we're at now... ...and you leftists are still butthurt.
To be clear, I don't think the thought even got to Obama himself, he would have shot it down immediately. It was something looked at very, very briefly by some departments in the administration. They quickly came to the conclusion it was inhumane. On the other hand, Trump was all for this inhumane policy, before the negative reaction was just too much to handle. Meanwhile Stephen Miller is probably still throwing up in a washroom somewhere........
And I have to laugh every time you try and throw this back on Obama. For the window lickers on the short bus: This scandal is owned, lock, stock, and barrel, by DONALD J. TRUMP, your glorious leader. Never in the history of this nation have all surviving First Ladies, including the immigrant wife of the man being held responsible, been so unified and unanimous in their displeasure over an American government policy. But, I must admit, it is quite humorous to watch you try and spin this away from Trump.
Trump created this problem so do not give thatvLying King credit for solving the problem he created. Do you congratulate an arsonist for reporting a fire he set?
Here is the truth boys and girls: Our so called POTUS , DJT , tried to use these kids as a "bargaining chip" and help them ( the kids) hostage while he planned to use those kids as a cudgel to pound the Democratic Boys and Girls upon their heads and shoulders until the Dems agreed to find his wall. Yes that same wall that he swore Mexico would pay for.
He did not create this problem. The policy of separating illegal immigrant children from their illegal immigrant adult has been around since the late 90's. Clinton, Bush and Obama did the same. Stop making crap up!
You are attributing our improving economy to Obama. I suppose recovery is not possible unless things are bad, so I guess I can see your point. I will say that the pharm industry did enjoy record profits under Obama. Never mind that the US is fatter and sicker than ever.
I’m wondering what the next issued rage will be once this news hits. Obama ordered his cyber security coordinator to stand down with his plans to stop Russian cyber attacks into our election, back in the summer of 2016. Rats on a sinking ship.
You are the one making stuff up. The policy may have been on the books but Trump is the one who practiced it. There is a diference between having a policy on the books and putting it in practice.
You typed all of that bullshit for your own benefit kiddo. Trump scored a win today. A win that TDS MSM and Schumer handed to him on a silver platter. Combine this saga with the DNCs pro-MS13 stance and their refusal to fix DACA and that herd of "Brown voter cattle" you leftists think is your own personal property is getting thinned out. Leftists thinks they're actually winning voters back with all of this but let me explain something to you... ...this is the only blue wave you're going to see:
Keep telling yourself that, my friend. And, you really should clean the outside of your toilet too. Those hinges look toxic.
The policy of separation of families was not enforced with the ferverish pitch that it was under Trump if it was at all before Trump. Edit add - family separation started this year under Trump http://time.com/5314769/family-separation-policy-donald-trump/
Family separation started this year - http://time.com/5314769/family-separation-policy-donald-trump/ Who was the POTUS this year?. Oh it was Trump! So Trump started family separation and blamed it on those Democratic Party guys.
