    And it'll be the media's fault because their reporting is riling up the criminals and their bratty kids -- Republican logic.

    Democrats need to hit the Republicans hard. Put photos of the kids in cages and say, "Republican X supports separating kids and locking them in cages. This is what they mean by 'Lock them up!' "

    No mealy-mouthed nonsense. Slam them.

    That won’t work — this is exactly what half the country wants.

    A majority of republican voters support this policy.

    It seems this issue is tailor made for Democrats to drive a wedge between the cultural conservatives and the libertarians/old-money GOP.

    There is simply no way one can call oneself a Christian and support what is happening at our borders.

    Nielsen pinch-hitting for SHYFS at the White House briefing. Pass the popcorn and don't wear new shoes!

    Not half. Less than 30 percent according to three national polls.

    This was in the works for more than a year. (And not since 1998.)

    I just gave you the law. These laws have been on the books since 1998. Look them up yourself. Those laws haven't been sitting around for two decades and completely ignored. I'm telling what has been going on. I fgave you a HuffPo article from 2013. I have seen these detention centers myself.

    By the way, "catch and release" is separate. That's not the same as someone claiming asylum and traveling with a minor. You are conflating the two, not that is surprises me.

    According to Attorney Angelo Guisado:

    "[T]hese places are tortuous: policies include banning mothers and children from sleeping together and turning lights on/off every hour to ensure this…guaranteeing sleep deprivation, this aside from your other standard physical/sexual abuse in ICE custody."

    But hey, it's all about that racist Trump, right?
