Thoughts about Al Sharpton aside, do you think Democratic members of the US House and US Senate should be interfering with what's happening to families at the border to the extent that they get arrested? Would the resulting media attention prove beneficial?

The outrage over what's happening would hit home with more people, and what's happening would come to an end. As an added bonus, Democrats would benefit at the polls. I bet forecasts that Democrats will pick up 30-35 seats in Congress would jump to 50+.
