I think that's brilliant. The families stay together -- in Mexico (or wherever). We won't separate them; that would be cruel. But, if some are illegal and some are citizens, everyone in the family can be kept together -- in Mexico.
Now, if the family itself makes a choice that the citizens will stay in the US and the illegal will return to Mexico ... well, if the family makes that choice that's their business.
But the illegals have to go.
Trump places it on them. It's brilliant.
Children of illegals born in the U.S. are dual citizens. U.S. Citizens, and citizens of their parents country. Ship the whole family back to their home country.
Just because they are anchor babies doesn’t mean they have to stay here. The Republicans need to show their compassion - keep the families together. Ship the whole family back to Mexico, or wherever.
You caught that, did ya? He’s turned the whole compassion thing on its head.
The whole argument about “separating families” is ridiculous, anyway. We are under no obligation to keep families together that were separated because of a crime. Should we release from jail every inmate who happens to have kids? Does anybody weep for the families of US military who are separated because the parent was deployed somewhere?
I’d say, “If you don’t want to be separated, join your greedy, lying, lawbreaking relative back in Mexico. And while you’re there, thank him for putting you in this position. It’s his fault, not ours.”
