Decent troll attempt. I'm sure your catch limit will be surpassed.

Don't folks on here love to hear liberals bleat about prosecutorial discretion, when they strutted around and shoved that term in everyone's face while Obama ignored law after law after law?

You'd think these mofos are anarchists. They sure don't believe in the rule of law.

3. Bargaining chip - I doubt anyone thinks this policy is going to continue for a long time, and it will be a give for get for the border wall. This might backfire though, as congress might fix it independent of some sort of comprehensive bill.


All that matters. Congress should have a fire lit under its' arse to produce some version of non-shitty legislation. It's on them now.

4. Narrative - While trump's staff is all over the place with what they are saying, they clearly feel more comfortable talking about this topic than other topics.



I'm not sure you are making sense. It's been horrible press for Trump even though this has been ginned up largely by the MSM liberal media.

He doesn't necessarily need to pander to his base either. The Democrats really don't give a shite about the plight of these kids......they are more interested in bashing Trump. They won't do anything to fix the problem because it helps them win voters.

So what do you liberals want to do with these illegals? If we keep the kids with the supposed parents . If we keep them together and the kids get raped by the adults then you will take the blame for that ?

Oh, it is definitely horrible press. But trump cares most about being on the news, not what the news says.

He most certainly does. He has to get them to the polls in the fall. Moves like this help him in that.

IMHO, this is what trump is doing. This is political theater.

Except it started under Obama.

Why do illegals get special treatment? If an American citizen committed a crime, they go to jail and are separated from their kids too. The only way for Trump to properly resolve this issue with kids at the border is to appoint more immigration judges to expedite hearings to minimize the amount of time the kids are separated from their parents. Then they can either have their asylum granted if they have a valid asylum case, or be swiftly deported if not.

These aren't Immigrants. They are Illegal Immigrants. There is a huge difference between the two.

What if I told you that it's a felony the second time?

Maybe they need to determine if these people have done this before???

I'd agree and point out us citizens tend to skip criminal court appearances on the reg as well. No clue where you live, but I'd blindly say a huge chunk of your county/parish's current warrants are for FTAs.

This is whataboutism. It's also comparing apples to oranges.

US citizens can be tracked down/held legally accountable. Hence warrants.

Illegal aliens can basically vanish into the ether when they don't show up.

Comparing parents who commit a misdemeanor to other parents who commit a misdemeanor is apples to apples.

Statute of limitations are only a year on most misdemeanors in most states.

Yea, not sure he thought that one through.

"What's your name?"

"Uhh, Pablo."

"OK, Pablo. See you in court next month"

"Uhh, OK. LOL"
