Obama never had any snafus when he was dealing with all the kids and parents coming over the border?

Can't we just put him back in office? He was a savior, a saint, and a genius all wrapped into one. Why did we get rid of him?

Why didn't 0bama just make an executive order to overturn Trumps win and give it to Hillary? I am sure they could have found a district 9 judge to agree...

ps, I am sure Hillary has some friends that will take care of those kids.

It must be the Constitution. No wonder he hated it so. If he had his way, he'd write an EO making himself president for life.

I feel like there must be "a threat to our democracy" somewhere someplace around here.

You shot something, but not "it down."
Reality escapes you. Or avoids you.

The threat to democracy is fear itself.
Perceived non-existent threats from the vast majority of immigrants.

That is the biggest threat to democracy right now.

No, it is the Democrat PArty.
Hands down.

More so than RUSSIANS even.
The DNC is a cancer.

Wrong.
Not only wrong, you display your predictable tunnel vision.

As if the threat to democracy was only confined to this country.
That is far from the truth.

RIF.
You expose your own tunnel vision.
The DNC is not the only, but it IS the worst.

Non-existent you say, eh?

Are we talking bodily harm here? Or harm to an already busted public assistance program? Or harm to an already pathetic public school system?

We should probably confine the talk to illegal immigrants. Since legal immigrants are by default, legal and AOK in everyone's book. Welcome them with open arms I say.

But what about illegal immigrants? No threats, you say?

Trump Admin Tells Court It Has Only Returned 2 Out Of 102 Immigrant Kids Under 5 Years Old

https://talkingpointsmemo.com/dc/tru...er-5-years-old

Lawyers for the Trump administration appeared once again in a courtroom in San Diego to ask a federal judge to push back his deadline for the reunification of children under five years old who were taken from their parents at the U.S.-Mexico border. And once again, Southern District of California Judge Dana Sabraw held off on giving them an extension, and is instead demanding that they come back to court on Tuesday to explain how many families were reunited, why the government failed to reunite the rest by the deadline, and how much more time it will need for those cases.

Its hard to reunite families when the parent sells the child to human traffickers who claim the child is a relative when entering US. the REAL parents cant be found

The facts that would make hcap's post not fact-free!~

Less of a threat than the right portrays.
Especially on Fox News, etc.

Ideally, we would not have any illegal immigrants.
That will hardly ever be the case, though.

Low unemployment is making workers harder to find.
Plenty of businesses, particularly in agriculture, have
a hard time making production targets.

I'm not saying that illegals should be allowed for that reason.
But making it impossible for low wage earners to get into this
country is not the solution.
