And what part of "it wasn't policy, it was infrequent, and everything was done to make sure that those families were reunited" are you disagreeing with?

II have known many " Legal residents " in my life living in NYC. I have known them from European, Asian, South American, and African nations. Many entered legally with their famalies on visas and overstayed. Then hired lawyers to fix it. Or they entered legally and then bring family members illegally into the US often thru Canada. I have known several people from Guyana and other former English colonies who have done that. Apparently that is a organized widespread practice. Then when their family members are here they get a lawyer to fix it. So my point is that many people who enter the US recently claim to have done everything legally and Im sure the majority do. But many of the the people who enter legally may not be telling the whole story or have family members who have not so a little empathy from them. And more law enforcement agaignst those who enter legally and over stay is needed as well.

lol what are you talking about? The UE going from 4.5 to 3.8 is more difficult than going from 10 to 4.5. It's actually amazing that we're still adding 200k jobs a month with unemployment this low. Capex is what im looking at capex growth has been insane 8% growth. The market is up like 30% since the election with rates normalizing. We're seeing 4.5% economic growth with no inflation and rising interest rates and strong dollar and wage growth. Perfect economic climate. We're going to see a lot of innovation of the next few years.

I think you and the Democrats will be very surprised in November, when this faux outrage over enforcing laws backfires.
Obama did deport lots of people. He faced lots of push back from his base. It was very public. He was derisevily called the deporter and chief by many. Dems are not for open boarders. That is a Republicant lie. However he did not take kids from their parents when illegals were detained an other Republicant lie.

But my gawd Maxine Waters has seen the baby's arms ripped right offa their bodies as their parents fought ICE to keep them. Bloody body parts everywhere! Oh the carnage! These illegals willing gave their babies up cause they viewed it as their ticket to the front of the line. If DNA tests were done on these alleged parents and their screaming babies we might find a big problem.

It's amazing that Trump was able to add less jobs/month than Obama after most of the work had been done? Ok.

It's amazing that Trump hasn't been able increase the LFPR? Ok.

It's amazing that Trump goosed the stock market with a corporate giveaway to repatriate profits? Ok.

It's amazing that Trump was able to match Obama's wage growth vs inflation? Ok.

Tell me more about Trump's amazing economy...

Wage growth has accelerated as the wage gap has stopped expanding. Entry level worker's wages are now rising faster than managements. Just admit the guy is winning on the economy man. Business and consumer confidence are near record highs. Everything Trump's people said would happen is happening after the tax and regulatory cuts.

Why did you post a CBO report that was through 2014?

Are you praising Obama?
