WOW: Melania Trump's Immigration Lawyer Slams Child Separation on Fox & Friends: It's Like Nazi Germany, Slave Trade
.........
Melania Trumps immigration lawyer took part in a focus group on Fox & Friends to discuss President Donald Trumps migrant policy, and tore into the separation of migrant children from their parents at the southern border in a fiery monologue.
Michael Wildes helped Melania Trump and her parents to get immigration status in the United States, years before her husband would launch a bid for the presidency on an ardent anti-immigration platform.
......................
In the end, its really a matter of priorities, Wildes said. When our founding fathers fought the pirates on the high seas, we didnt lose the moral compass what it is to be American.
When were dealing with this challenge, we should not be quarantining our children from parents, he continued. The inhumanity of what we see is reminiscent of detention centers of Nazi Germany, of the slave trade. We can do better when we try to figure out this problem. Lets not forget, this problem needs to be fixed because the greatest risk-takers and greatest entrepreneurs historically have been immigrants this country.

(22,919 posts)Bravo to him. We have to break into the sealed reality capsule that FOX viewers inhabit to weaken Trump just enough to ensure we can bring him down. Meanwhile those children's lives are in the balance, Republicans specifically need to hear from their constituents opposing the separation of families.

It is interesting how this guy references the slave trade. Everyone at DU should read the essay:
"What Hitler Learned from America" by Alex Ross. It was in the 4/30 New Yorker magazine.

I sort of lost my temper when he was on speaker phone with my husband yesterday and started parroting Fox talking points. I usually lock myself in the bedroom when this happens but I futilely to tried to get through to him instead.
The last thing he said before hanging up abruptly was "why does everybody always yell at me when I say that I like trump?"
Sorry, it's hard to keep calm like my husband does when you say the most blatantly ignorant crap you get off Fox News.
