Well I guess that doesn’t take much effort for you does it. I mean, I could point out for the millionth time that we don’t separate families for misdemeanors, nor do we rip children from parents seeking asylum, that would require the barest amount of honesty possible for a human being, which as we’ve seen repeatedly proven, Trump supporters aren’t capable of doing.
You know it is bad for them when you see what Cruz has done between last week to this week.
Ted Cruz has staged a dramatic about-face on the Trump administration’s “zero tolerance” immigration policies, laying bare how politically damaging the issue of separating children from parents accused of crossing the border illegally is becoming for Republicans facing voters this fall.
The Texas senator, who has become a frequent ally of President Donald Trump, initially blasted criticism of the White House crackdown.
“When you see Democrats saying, ‘Don’t separate kids from their parents,’ what they’re really saying is don’t arrest illegal aliens,” he said last week
But he’s softened substantially, telling reporters in Washington on Tuesday, “All of us are horrified at the images we’re seeing.”
I’m so glad you are entertained that I am utterly outraged by the Trumps adminstration Nazi esque policies. I will be even more outraged if they start gassing these kids, so why not start promoting that in order to “own” me further?
This mess is a result of both parties and politicians from both sides of the aisle kicking the can down the road for decades now. Blaming one and not the other only highlights your intellectual laziness or your actual ignorance of this issue.
As one who identified as an evangelical for most of my life (until the Trump fiasco in 2016), let me just be the first to say - it’s about damn time that churches start standing against this nonsense. Good on them.
What’s to spin? The Church’s rhetoric perverts the definition of “child abuse” and “racial discrimination.”
None of this would be going on if the “immigrants” had crossed (or applied to cross) at official points of entry. By law, the adults who crossed the border illegally are criminals and are subject to detention. Children are not detained with criminals, but must be either placed in the hands of a relative or guardian or be cared for by the government authority holding the parents. It’s as simple as that. Perhaps what the Church should do instead of acting “holier than thou” is to set up a care center for the kids.
What a stupid attempt at a gotcha question. OF course the UMC is involved with helping homeless children. Good grief. Will the new CEC attack angle be anti-church now? DEFEND TRUMP AT ALL COSTS!
