Melanie has another photo op at Arizona baby jail, tells agents "I'm here to support you"

Melania Trump for the second time has traveled to Trump migrant concentration camp for children in Tucson, Arizona. On camera a Customs and Border Patrol agent told the First Lady “there have to be consequences” for those families attempting to enter the U.S., often to seek asylum.

“I’m here to support you,” the First Lady said at the televised event speaking to the agents of the federal Customs and Border Patrol, “and to give my help whatever I can, for, behalf of children and the families.”

“I know how dangerous and difficult your daily jobs are so I really appreciate all you do on behalf of the country,” the First Lady told the Customs and Border Patrol agents.

There was no discussion of the thousands of children the Trump administration has forcibly separated from their parents and families.

She is there to pose with ICE. Sick move.
Perhaps she can turn it into a calendar (proceeds going to Trump's re-election) if she brought a change of outfits?

The foreigner spousal unit currently an entitled entity controlled by Dirty Donny* has failed to impress with her meaningless propaganda dog-and-pony show.

Yeah, this is a serious fluff-job on “U.S. Marshalls, U.S. Border Patrol Agents, and local ranchers”, ain’t it.

Goddamn, lady.

11. Asylum seekers are being forced to enter illegally

by CPB agents. They are standing on the line on the bridge of the ports of entry asylum seekers are told to use and blocking them from getting even a toe on US soil, where they would automatically have rights. The asylum seekers are then forced to enter illegally and when they turn themselves into border guards, they are arrested and prosecuted for illegal entry.

That is some Catch-22!

Also, how does she know how "dangerous & difficult" their jobs are? Also, what did she mean by "whatever I can"?
