Hate always seems to be legal. Since Trump commits a crime with every breath, we should tell him this. He hates legality.

Immoral as hell, but legal.

Trump's gang made crossing the border without permission an illegal act. They include asylum seekers.
So,under the law, if you arrest a parent, the children cannot go to jail with the parent, and if there is no legal adult to take care of the kids, then ...taaa daaa....the camps.

And since they have learned from history not to keep records, no witnesses, no paper trail, no way to track kids.

Sadly, the election is shoving a lot of immigrant news out of focus.
