I was listening to the Progressive Sirius channel to get a handle on what the crazies are thinking. There's a doofus named Thom Hartmann who's usually way out in left field and making an ass of himself with his idiotic commentary and political analysis. He was in rare form yesterday, accusing Trump of manufacturing the crisis at the border by not letting in all the refugees coming across and calling them illegals.
Just when you think Trump could not get any worse, he pulls his, "I wish I was a dictator and my word was law" act and tells border guards to ignore the law, even if a judge directly issues an order, and not allow legal asylum seekers into the country.
What is with this guy? Who does he think he is that he not only thinks HE can ignore the law, but that he counsels others to do so.
"When the agents later asked their commanding officers about the remarks, their superiors said policy was to obey the law and that they would face personal liability if they complied with Trump's orders, according to the network."
The man is a loose cannon who has no idea what it takes to be a true leader of a democracy. He knows how to be a bully, but not a leader.
Read the article. It is frightening that he wanted children separated from their families, and Nielsen had to remind him that he had signed an executive order stopping the practice, remind him numerous times.
Unbelievable, and yet, there are a whole ton of people on here who think counselling to break the law is just dandy.
Seems we have volunteers to head up DHS, accompanied by an odd sprinkling of "Obama did it too."
Alas, this thread is about Trump telling border agents to break the law.
Trump is obviously trying to create chaos and confusion to whip up with his base. Whether he is successful or not with these folks remains to be seen.
Everyone else is on to his game.
How is it Obvious?
Absolutely no proof is given by those same rags which lied about Russiagate for 2 years.
