Trump created a problem. He could fix it. Instead he will mess it all up. Screw the pooch is the best term I can use for him and his Administration.


Fixed it,

Yes, Trump wants to be a dictator. He's so ignorant he doesn't know how Presidents are supposed to function.

And btw, a whole lot of people changed their political affiliations b/c they wanted this also... When a society ignores laws, a decline in society starts...we are there.... You would really love to convince yourself that obeying the laws is racist, but you couldn't be stating a more illogical and ridiculous statement.
I voted for Obama, in his first term, and yet, b/c I disagreed with his policies, I was called a racist....
Enough with the race card, it's old.
yanno what? Trump does everything he can to appeal to the racist, nativist instincts of some Republican voters, whether that describe you or not is for you to decide but it is a fact.

Default Kirstjen Nielsen Eats Her Words

All she had to eat was her words.

They ran her out of the Mexican restaurant before she could eat her Taco.

This is the correct response.

So he might as well trust his instincts and move on...

He was smart enough to beat a field of other republican candidates and he was smart enough to beat Hillary.

Trump signs an EO, it will be challenged in court.



Trump is wanting Congress to fix it.
Congress has been avoiding the immigration problem for decades. Under both Democratic and Republican Administrations, and with both Democratic and Republican congresses, they have not had the courage to tackle immigration reform. So of course, the current problem has its roots in that failure.

BUT, Trump chose to push congress to act by confiscating children, tearing them from their parents, exposing them to trauma that has life-long implications. He has used innocent children as pawns in his legislative strategy. He is immoral, as are many of the people who surround him.

Now he has been forced to admit that he COULD unilaterally withdraw his policy. The larger problem remains unresolved, but he has shown himself to be capable of gross child abuse for reason of political maneuvering.

A percentage of the other 2000 are with people who can't be verified.

The infants ripped from the nipples of lactating women are in the super minority
When they take them away they now call them unaccompanied.

Trump did not break anything. The Federal Court ruled that parents could NOT be detained WITH their children just a few months ago. When you are arrested, you can't take your kids to jail with you to serve your sentence.
