You're still choosing to spin the BS. They specifically said when you enter illegaly, not through a border crossing. It's very specific, enter illegaly, not through a border crossing and you're breaking the law and getting arrested.

I don't get all of the hub bub. You commit any crime and you get separated from your family, wtf is the difference here??? The pearl clutching and moral outrage is sickening.

Is there seriously anyone who is somehow unaware of that fact?
Since when do asylum seekers get arrested?

Since the heartless cheeto decided to use children as pawns? Yes.

I wish his grandfather had been denied entry into this country.

A snippet of his grandfather's letter begging to stay in Bavaria:

Why should we be deported? This is very, very hard for a family.

Oh, the irony!


I wouldn't be surprised if the cheeto feels this is his payback for his family not being able to stay in Bavaria.

Too bad children have to suffer for his ego.

And his mantra about the horrors of 'chain migration':

“Donald Trump is a product of ‘chain migration.’”

The 16-year-old Friedrich Trump, who spoke little English, would not have hopped on a ship and came to America without a family member already in place to help him. In 1885, when Friedrich immigrated, he joined his sister Katherine, who “had immigrated to New York a year earlier,” according to Gwenda Blair

Would you seek asylum in Mexico, a place no safer than Central America? GET REAL!

It's inhumane and certainly not Christian-like.

I'm confused.

Does the Left want Christan morals setting government policy now?

Or do you just want to pick and choose which parts of the Church you want separated from the State as it suits your agenda?

The Trump-haters are aware of it. But they hope there are some people who aren't.

That way they can try to fool them into believing Trump has done something horrible when he hasn't.

The truth doesn't help the Trump-haters, facts are not on their side. So they must make up lies like this about him, to try to make him look bad.

SSDD.

Because it is unnecessary and cruel.

How about when it's PROVEN that they are being PREVENTED from crossing at the port of entry?

CBP is physically blocking them from entering via a port of entry forcing them to enter the US elsewhere. I will tell you right now, this is not going to turn out well for Trump and the people in his administration who are forcing this to happen.

I am not feeling the empathy here, folks. I believe in enforcing law and order. What am I missing?
