I have a question...why take these children

[LEW]

Away from their parents? Why stress an already overtaxed foster system with more children? Why, why.....

[eleny]

1. Trump enjoys demoralizing others

[Trek4Truth]

2. I know if you hate brown people and want them out....why take the children??? And not only

take them but KEEP them. I don't understand why the racist government would want that.

[LEW]

4. Again

Why keep these young children? Why...why? I know what my suspicious mind is thinking, trying to find out if anyone else see's at least one maybe reason...

3. The boys will be a self fulfilling prophecy when they rebel

The babies and toddlers will be given to fundies.
The girls will be given to pedophiles and traffickers.
In other words, the kids will be handed out like party favors to their most staunch supporters.

5. Ok

At least one person is seeing what scares me....

[Horse with no Name]

7. I am sickened and terrified for these kids.

Republicans have shown us over and over who they are and I believe them.

[JI7]

6. Because the point is to terrorize them

[bdamomma]

8. I think

we should ask Stephen Miller? He is the one who orchestrated this.

[uppityperson]

9. To punish Mexicans for not funding his wall. To get ethical congress people/dems

to give him $25 billion for the wall.

Because he's evil.

[smirkymonkey]

16. Yes. This.

10. ICE raided a company in Ohio yesterday and arrested over 100

undocumented workers, what happens to their children? There was also no mention of any penalties to the employer in the media..

[hydrolastic]

11. Because it was not about the children in the first place.

It was about the process. Before it was only a misdemeanor to cross the border. Now that the executive order is signed i bet it is now a crime to cross the border. They knew there was never going to be sustained family separation. i would like verification but i bet that is true.

12. There's a LOT of money in gvt contracts for shelter, services, etc

These private 'non profit' detention facilities (like the converted WalMart) get stacks of cash!

[Glimmer of Hope]

15. Yep. People are getting paid.

[Demsrule86]

13. Private kiddie prison are big money...contracts through 2022.

Sell the babies they are expensive.

[Kajun Gal]

14. It's his only satisfaction. He gets his rocks off by doing this. As does Stephen Miller.

As far as Ivanka goes, it's hurting her sales. Melania is just a lost soul trying to survive.

[jberryhill]

17. There is a dollar to be made
