Trump Asks, 'Who Built The Cages, Joe?' Here's the Answer: Biden and Obama Did

It was quite a moment during the final debate between President Trump and Joe Biden when they were discussing immigration and Biden tried to gain the moral high ground on the issue. Trump was clearly prepared for the attack.

Kristen Welker began the topic by saying to Trump, “Your administration separated children from their families at the border,” before referring to a recent story that the parents of 500 kids at the border can’t be located.

Trump explained that children aren’t just brought here by their families, but by coyotes and cartels as a means of getting into the United States.

When pressed on how he’ll reunite the kids with their families, Trump pointed out that it was the Obama-Biden administration that built the cages and began the policy of child separation.

Biden accused President Trump of implementing child separation as a disincentive for illegal immigrants to come to this country

“They got separated from their parents,” Biden argued. “And it makes us a laughing stock and violates every notion of who we are as a nation.”

“They did it,” Trump retorted. “We changed the policy.”

“We did not separate—”

“Who built the cages? Who built the cages, Joe?” Trump asked Biden.

“Let’s talk about what we’re talking about. What happened? Parents, their kids were ripped from their arms and separated. And now they cannot find over 500 sets of those parents and those kids are alone, nowhere to go, nowhere to go. It’s criminal. It’s criminal.”

Trump then pressed Biden again with the question, “Who built the cages?” And a sullen Joe Biden refused to even attempt to answer the question.

Here’s why Joe couldn’t answer the question: because he and Barack Obama built the cages and he knows it.

A LITTLE LOOK BACK IN HISTORY:

Back in June 2019, Barack Obama’s former ICE chief, Thomas Homan, acknowledged at a conference hosted by the Center for Immigration Studies that the “cages” Democrats blamed on Trump were the product of the Obama administration. “I’ve been to that facility, where they talk about cages. That facility was built under President Obama under (Homeland Security) Secretary Jeh Johnson. I was there because I was there when it was built,” Homan said.

Here’s a photo of Obama-Biden DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson touring one such facility back in 2014. As you can see, he’s walking past these cages. You can even see kids sleeping on the floor.

Even the left-wing fact-checking site Snopes admitted that the Obama administration built these cages. “Images of children behind chain-link fencing were widely seen at a site in McAllen, Texas, that had been converted from a warehouse to an immigrant detention facility in 2014,” they wrote. “Social media users who defended Trump’s immigration policies also shared a 2014 image of Obama’s Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson touring a facility in Nogales, Arizona, in 2014, in which the fencing could be seen surrounding migrants there, too.”

It was glorious!

And now they cannot find over 500 sets of those parents and those kids are alone, nowhere to go, nowhere to go. It’s criminal. It’s criminal.

What parent would abandon their child? So either the government screwed up and deported the parents without deporting the kids, the kids came over unaccompanied, or the children were used as props my non-relatives in hopes to prevent detention and then abandoned.

Did @realDonaldTrump just say 545 kids they can’t find their parents for came over through “cartels and coyotes”?! How the hell does a coyote bring a whole human across the border?! Lord-——stop talking. #FinalDebate

She got called out big time for it!!! I’m cracking up reading these responses. ROFL

This is not a joke.

[Salamander]

OMG, we crossed streams!

LOL

UGH, this was a non issue. Trump could have been more “concerned” but he’s right that these kids are being used and there parents aren’t with them so getting them back together is near impossible, unless you send the kid back to his native country.

[Salamander]

[1Old Pro]

LOL, so that’s how they do it.

[Salamander]

I’m betting the kids were grabbed to ensure passage over the border because they “don’t split up families”.

God knows where the parents are...or if they’re even still alive.

I recall an article some time back where the DNA tests of kids and “parents” were not matching, frequently.

I reckon it takes a whole pack to get a bigger kid across.

I figured something like that would happen; darn work interruptions! LOL

Well they would have gone to Guam but the island is in danger of capsizing.

How the hell does a coyote bring a whole human across the border?!

Maybe a dingo but certainly not a coyote, those bushy tailed, ACME-buying bastards. < /immense eyeroll>

[bk1000]

If those “parents can’t be located” in fact, can’t be located, then they weren’t the parents. What parent wouldn’t be at the facility offering blood or DNA for a test? Those kids were trafficked. Not buying a word of that one.
