Guess what - I'm a Democrat - I'm Christian and I voted for Trump. As a parent - my responsibility to my kids involves not putting them in situation where they may be harmed or worse. These people know that the US is now following the laws. They know that the children are being sequestered from the parents - it's their responsibility as parents if they want to come here to do so legally. You're not much of a role model if you're breaking the law.
Sorry but this Democrat believes in personal responsibility. I'm sick of taking care of everyone but our own. If they left want to donate money, set up their own shelters, take these people into your homes until they can settle here - so be it - get off your duffs and do it. I don't feel it's my responsibility nor do I have the money.
What don't you get about the fact that the illegals coming over the borders dragging the kids across are always the parents???? THe liberal politicians are willing to see, and more than likely aid and abet, these illegals attempt to cross just to attempt to create a narrative that the bad old conservatives don't care about the little children. The thing is that the liberal politicians don't care if these kids lives are in danger en route. It's all about trying to destroy President Trump's chance of re-election.
There was just recently a gang member stopped thinking he could scoot across because he has a kid with him. Where the do you think he got THAT idea?
The MSM is lying. If you fall for their lies you will believe anything.
MSM is lying about what?
Yes there are some who may not be the parents & the children could be victims of trafficking. Then you separate the kids -- that's okay. You find the parents of the kids and send them home.
But for those families that are clearly families asking for asylum -- you don't separate them.
many years ago, the politicans from both sides stood at the border, handing out flyers to them, saying, "remember, vote for me". All they want are votes, they don't give a darn about this....and Trump is finally trying to do something about this...
Trump doesn't give a dam about any of this. He is playing to his base and trying to get funding for his wall. You know that wall Mexico was going to pay for. That is why it has become an issue now.
B*** S***! They can apply for refugee status in Mexico. Which is what they were supposed to do in the first place, instead of traveling through MX to the land of free ****.
No matter how man times this lie is posted, it is still a lie.
There is no "supposed to" about it.
They can apply for asylum in any nation they want. Russians have applied for asylum in the U.S. We're certainly not the next country over. That would be Finland or Belarus.

this isn't rocket science.
Deport them. Together. They can apply for Asylum from their home country or from Mexico.
And just because a family is kept together -- it doesn't mean they are automatically granted asylum. They have to follow the procedure, and qualify as dictated by our laws.
We just don't have to be complete *******S about the whole thing.

About the kids being RIPPED from their mothers and all the BS trying to make it as though the Trump admin is heartless. They are not.
This is a horrible situation for the kids. The liberal politicians, parents and gang members have done this to them.
How many children were in that tent city? Many of these children are toddlers and infants who are far less capable of dealing with extreme heat than adults. The adults are not being sent to these cities and are probably being sent to places that have better living conditions than the children.
Except they don't exist yet (in process) so you nor I have any idea what they will actually be or who will actually be in them. Could be teens or?
Drop the hysterics, y'all are acting like the kids are being tortured, unfed,unwashed and unmonitored. I actually heard one "news" reporter claim they were "dog kennels". What a load of crap.
Good heavens, these places are NOT like the jails or gulags of the countries they left, they get treated way,way better than anywhere they came from...
