True conservatives have to be so upset with this.
What is the Republican party going to be known for looking forward?
You're right and I can tell you're very smart. These children should not be taken away from their parents, in fact their parents should not be arrested at all for crossing the border illegally and in fact we should just open up the border.

We can't have these third worlders flood across our border en masse with the intention of overwhelming our security.

If our government doesn't quell this cultural dilution of our society, Americans will do it on their own. Stay tuned.

Build the wall.
Migrants all over the world are fleeing wars, famine, poor economies. Like my grandparents, leaving Italy and Ireland in the mid to late 1800's.

Where is the empathy and heart for these people. Being a migrant just about anywhere in the world today, is a scary, hard place to be.

Watching this current selected president treat people worse than wild animals is inhumane and I believe crimes against humanity.

Trump's mother came from Germany, (I think) back around when my folks came to America, probably via Ellis island, what and who does he think he is?

Spending money on that "wall," is a waste of money and energy that could be spent on curing diseases and re-building our crumbling infrastructure.

The only natural people here are the native American Indian.

Trump said, "we won't be a country of migrants." Hey, Trump, too late, our country was founded on immigrants. Try reading some history, before you open your mouth and shout out fake history.!!!!

Don't kid yourself. Deep down, Trump is a very sick individual, a classic sociopath - and this particular "hot mess" shows it in spades. And yet - the Trumpists continue to adore him. It says a LOT about their values. Every day that goes by that they go further out on a limb with Trump they lose more credibility. How can you respect someone that supports a tactic like this?
Please. We know your game! Your fake outrage is just a tactic to further disrupt our Country. But keep it up.

4,000-5,000 a month! This isn't 1914. We don't need to import poverty and the non-assimilating. Wake up and smell the coffee.
End this immigration farce-----build the wall!

Oh you are so very wrong. This is NOT fake outrage at all. Anyone who is not upset at breaking up families just to justify getting money for a wall we were told that Mexico would pay for is lacking empathy. Especially when the bible is brought into it .
Trump is a liar who shows authoritarian tendencies and people are blindly falling in line even at the cost of permanently harming innocent children.

Yes we should definitely do away with anchor babies.

Mexican and Latino baby waving (sympathy ploys)seems to be working on clueless Liberals, if they are so butthurt they can always pool their money and open up FAKE refugee and asylum centers in MEXICO and put their money where their mouths are.

She said it is "disingenuous to couch this as a continuation" of Obama's policies.

“What’s happened is the exception to the rule is now becoming the rule,” Young said. “Here they’re doing zero-tolerance policy to punish families and send a message to their home countries: Don’t do this.””

Question for those who support this policy: do you know that crossing the border illegally is a misdemeanor, much like littering or speeding?
How many people in this country even get pulled over, let alone have their children taken from them for doing 5-10 over the speed limit?

We’ll wait.
