Yes, I am complaining about that. It's a fucked up unnecessary policy. They're looking at land right now to build out more detention camps too. One article quoted a figure of 5,000 for the number of child migrants they were looking to house. For now they are in old Wal Marts and other detention centers.
I see that you are trying to establish a certain simple framing of a complex issue because you argue in bad faith. I will respond anyway. You know as well as I do that the executive branch has a lot of latitude in enforcement. I do not want a king which is what you're alluding to, I think, and that's also why I want to see republicans step up and slap some checks and balances on the president. It's their duty.
Did Obama hurt your feelings? Is that it? You're not alone. I hear the same things from lots of people. Especially when they can not defend their leader trump. They will say "What about Obama! He called me a racist." You still have to reconcile with the anti-Americanism of the trump movement and incessant, constant stream of lies he puts out. You need to account for this. You and all the other faux patriots who are working furiously to rationalize his lying.
