"You and I can carp about his judgement, but it is his judgement, and I expect that judgement to include due attention to his conscience."

Thats the problem, his judgment. I expect him to give due attention to Americans and be less concerned about invading citizens of a foreign country. If his conscience requires him to balance Mexicans interests against Americans, like I said, he's got the wrong job.

He has to balance the misery of a huge number of poor and blameless people vs US national interests. I don't envy him this choice.

There is no way to put off the guilt of dealing with it on someone else either. That is a cop out. He has the power, it is his choice, it is his guilt.

This is the kind of thing that prematurely ages people.
