Surprising he doesn't get along better with Trump.

We shouldn’t respect ANY politicians anymore.

Certainly not Obama, Nancy Pelosi or Maxine Waters. lol

I would love to hear a plan or solution from the left as to what to do with this situation, but as of now, I have not heard anything.
Asylum seekers can do that legally. They should not be arrested at all.

People who are not seeking asylum and who cross the border illegally should simply be sent back.

If an arrest is necessary, I see no reason to put both parents in jail in a 2-parent situation.

Also, the place where these kids are being held is an abandoned Walmart with cages.

How is that not a prison?

We always get threads when celebrities tweet something critical of Trump or the Republicans.

Apparently, they should not be allowed to freely speak their minds.

I agree, bring them all in. And on a plus note, the more we let in, the more that will come, which will guarantee a supply of cheap labor. I sometimes feel sorry for working class Americans, especially African-Americans, but the bottom line as a business owner, is that when I employ undocumented immigrants, I don't have to pay so called living wages or contribute to silly things like 401k or unemployment funds.

It's time to find them an island where they can all go and just complain, nitpick and abuse everything and everyone in their twisted "paradise". The can elect nutcake DeNiro as their Prez.

America would be so much happier and more prosperous without so many nasty regressive types.
This seems to be the blanket response for anyone who thinks different from you/the Right. SO laughable. Someone you don't agree with, so GET OUT OUT OF MY COUNTRY, RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE.
