Rasmussen: Parents to Blame for Border Crisis
The Daily Caller ^ | 6/21/2018 | Amber Athey

Posted on 06/21/2018 11:36:10 PM PDT by Nifster

According to a new Rasmussen poll, a majority of Americans blame illegal immigrant parents for the child crisis on the border over the U.S. government.

The media has put a hyper focus on the separation of families at the border over the last several weeks, leading President Donald Trump to sign an executive order ending the separation. Current U.S. law does not allow families to be detained together if the parents are referred for prosecution for illegal border crossing.

However, the Rasmussen poll shows that Americans don’t blame the Trump administration for the approximately 2,000 children who have been separated from their parents.

54 percent of likely voters polled by Rasmussen said that they think the parents are more to blame for breaking the law.

History repeating.

Unfortunately, the left is congenitally incapable of learning from the past. History, for a liberal, begins anew every morning. The past is whatever they say it is.

The real story can be found in the comments anywhere the MSM allows comments.

Real Americans are not buying the open-borders propaganda spewed by the leftist MSM.

Forget the propaganda, look at the comments. It’s not even close. Trump is smart to bring this topic back up, it’s a loser for the Rats in the mid-terms.

The real story is in the comments.

Damn straight!!!!!

Who the hell lets their kid go thousands of miles by themselves through UNCIVILIZED Mexico?????

The trek through UNCIVILIZED Mexico seems more dangerous then staying in Gautama or Honduras for an unaccompanied child.

Yup, the parents suck.

Just like the meeting with Kim, the polls showed that despite a 90%+ negative coverage, about 70 percent approved of the meeting.

Most people are smart enough to realize that if the kids weren’t being brought here, there would be no “crisis”.

And the GOP can’t surrender fast enough because of “our” values.

People do not like it when others break into line ahead of those who have been waiting. Everyone can relate to this common experience.

Responsibility is not in the liberal vocabulary and they don’t want it to be. An irresponsible parent is their friend and is labeled the victim. Like the muzzies who use their children as a weapon so do they

(1) @RoyalTXGirl asks a question.

(2) Let me explain how @realDonaldTrump works.

It's similar to the advice I got back when I was trying to be a successful author.

(3) A VERY skilled editor told me the following:

"Every single sentence you write must advance the plot."

(4) It's how I write my tweet threads.

People compliment me on them.

Well, I'm working hard to make them compelling.

(5) Every tweet must advance the "plot" of the thread.

No wasted words.

(6) Every action Trump takes is in service to the "plot."

The SPECIFICS don't matter, because we're talking VERY small numbers of people.

(7) Remember the Central American Caravan Juggernaut of Death?

Remember the HYSTERIA?

The caravan barely existed. It totally petered out.

(8) That's because the CARAVAN wasn't the plot.

"Democrats are the party of illegal immigration" is the plot.

(9) What did Sessions and Trump accomplish with this whole "family separation" issue?

They alerted Americans that entire illegal FAMILIES are coming.

AND.

(10) Americans saw the Democrats fighting tooth and nail to allow entire illegal families to pour into the country through the southern border.

Another sentence that advanced the plot.

(11) The Democrats are the party of illegal immigration."

(12) A subplot that makes the plot more compelling:

Democrats are wildly insane.

(13) Elected official @BrianSimsPA greets the vice president of the United States.

(14) Denise Christiansen @denisec_smiles demands action.

(15) The plot is that the Democrats are the party of illegal immigration, and the subplot is that the Democrats are utterly deranged with hate.

Every action Trump takes is advancing the plot and subplot.

(16) Of course Trump didn't MAKE Brian and Denise go round the bend.

They always WERE round the bend.

Trump simply does and says things that he knows will goad people into losing it.

(17) How carefully does Trump think out his plots?

THIS carefully.


Kim Jong Un ends visit to China with a message for the US

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un ended a celebratory visit to China's President Xi Jinping on Wednesday with tea, praise, handshakes -- and a message for the US.


 

(18) Everything that every single person says in this article is wrong.

The entire piece is malarkey on every level.

Why do I say that?

(19) CNN itself reported why everyone is wrong.


CIA Director Mike Pompeo secretly met with North Korea's Kim Jong Un

CIA Director Mike Pompeo visited North Korea more than two weeks ago for a secret meeting with leader Kim Jong Un in Pyongyang, sources confirmed to CNN.


 

(20) "Pompeo, who is US President Donald Trump's nominee for Secretary of State, didn't take any officials from the White House or State Department with him on the trip, only intelligence officials, one source said Tuesday."

(21) The CIA Director secretly went to Pyongyang and took only intelligence officials.

It didn't leak.

(22) Am I the only one who understand what happened?

Pompeo set up a secure video link between Kim and Trump.

That's the end of the problem.

(23) Trump is still pushing China over trade.

That means China no longer has leverage over North Korea.

(24) North Korea can now communicate directly with South Korea and the US without Chinese interference.

I shouldn't be amazed that "experts" are too stupid to see any of this, but at some point you start getting really paranoid:

Doesn't anyone know anything?

(25) The reality is that a SMALL NUMBER of people know what's happening, and all of them are in control right now.

So we are in good hands.

(26) What's this?

(27) When I pull back far enough, you can see the big picture.

You were looking at approximately five square inches of the elephant's left front leg.
 

(28) We're on a safari right now.

Do want to take a magnifying glass and examine each left front leg of each animal, or do you want to stay in the jeep and watch the whole scene from a distance?

(29) My unsolicited advice to you is to put away your magnifying glass and enjoy the scenery.

Everybody's telling you that the elephant is a hay baler, or a sewage treatment plant, or Nancy Pelosi's ball gown.
 

(30) They're all wrong.

It's an elephant, but they'll never see it...

This was actually over before the evil donkey could get it started. This manufactured “crisis” will now be filed along with the first 15 no one can remember David Camera HOGG and Sorry Daniels.

Contradicts the CNN polls that blame Trump for everything.

In a way Dems brought this on when they made the case for DACA and Dreamers calling them victims for bring ‘brought here’

Of course the parents are responsible. The more the media tries to define the narrative, the more they fail.

This is why when the left and the media do their nationwide tantruming freakout hysteria it is important not to to say “oh noes we have to do something” that onlys rewards them for it.

Now, The leftist filth know full well if they want something, all they have to do is tantrum and they will get their way.

Relax, take a poll, see what’s going on first. The American public, at least the part that matter know what’s going on.
