29. One of the very saddest things from Trump's child separation is that their "care-takers"

Sun Apr 7, 2019, 01:45 PM

are absolutely the opposite of providing care. They do not touch, they do not comfort, they do NOTHING to help these psychically damaged children.

How I wish they had caring people WHO WOULD use benign touch to comfort them to help them cope.
To have a grandfatherly figure like Biden reach out and hug them, put a shoulder on their arm, tell them he understands and most importantly show that he CARES--how much of a difference might that make. That human connection is invaluable.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
