Trump Signs Order Keeping Families Together… Dems Don’t Give A CRAP

President Trump signed an executive order keeping detained families together after a political FIRESTORM took over the news cycle.

The ACLU quickly proved that this never had anything to do with keeping families together. That was just an emotional appeal for their end goal: Let EVERYONE go, let EVERYONE in.

The Democrats are following suit.

Raise your hand if you’re shocked. Anyone? Anyone? https://t.co/2iV5mfYlDS

According to Fox News:

After demanding for days that President Trump end the separation of illegal immigrant families at the border, Democrats responded to his executive order stopping the practice with only new appeals — drawing GOP accusations that they’re more interested in using the issue as a political cudgel.

BECAUSE THIS WAS NEVER ABOUT FAMILIES.

That was simply a tool to get to what they ACTUALLY want.

The president, rarely one to back down from a fight, signed the order Wednesday allowing children to stay with parents caught crossing the border illegally. The move followed national outrage over the impact of the Justice Department’s “zero tolerance” policy referring all illegal border crossers for prosecution. Children were separated due to a 1997 order and related decisions that forbid them from being detained with adults for extended periods.

For a solid week, the administration was pilloried by Democrats, journalists, activists and even members of his own party.

Trump sought to ease the outrage with his order. But, keen to show his base he’s not softening on immigration either, he vowed to continue the “zero tolerance” approach, while calling on Congress to seek a more lasting fix.

Democrats were not impressed. Within minutes of Trump’s oversized signature being displayed for the cameras, they turned their focus to the “indefinite imprisonment of families.”

This Executive Order doesn’t fix the crisis. Indefinitely detaining children with their families in camps is inhumane and will not make us safe.

This isn’t over. Thousands of kids have been ripped from their parents with no plan to reunite them. And now @realdonaldtrump wants to create new detention camps for families. Separating kids is unacceptable – but indefinite imprisonment of families is still cruel & inhumane.

It’s extremely troubling that the president’s executive order would require immigrant families with children to be detained indefinitely. The order appears to be the next step in the Trump administration’s larger agenda to eliminate basic protections for asylum seekers.

Translation: WE WILL NOT STOP B*TCHING UNTIL ALL ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS ARE LET IN WITHOUT CONSEQUENCE.

“Let us be clear that the executive order that he issued together goes nowhere, nowhere, nowhere as far as it should go,” Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., said on the Senate floor, before echoing the concerns about detaining families together.

“Is that better than them being separated from their parents? I guess,” Sanders shrugged. “But does anyone really believe we should be imprisoning for an indefinite period of time, little children?”

What do you suggest we do then, Bern?

OH. Let anyone and everyone into this country. Got it.

Republicans countered that families are not actually being held indefinitely and are going through due process. Further, they cited the Democratic shrug-off as proof that they were trying to keep the issue hot for the November midterms.

Accurate. This is NOTHING but a political game to them.

“Even though the president resolved the family separation issue on a temporary basis, they condemn him for that,” Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Texas, said on “Fox & Friends.” “I don’t think they have any interest in working constructively with us but rather use this in the 2018 midterm elections.”

BINGO.
