    Yeah, that would be an apt reply if that's all that I was saying, but it's not.

    It’s an absolute shame. They weren’t too concerned when Obama was building the cages, and deporting millions. He wasn’t called deporter in chief for nothing.


    They were actually. There are reports from back there about it too. The reason there weren't as many is because it wasn't on the same scale or for the same reason. Under Obama, the facilities were used as temporary holding for unaccompanied minors.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,939 ✭✭✭20Cent


    But they did it too is not an argument. Also one can criticise trump without having to justify everything Obama did. Trump is a grown man and can make his own decisions. He has decided to have people living in unsanitary conditions and separate children from their parents.

    This is bull crap and you both know it. Did you even watch the video I posted above?

    Obama built the cages. Obama. Deported illegal immigrants at record numbers.

    The trump came to power. He wanted to increase ICE’s budget but the democrats refused. Saying there’s no crisis (I’d post a video as evidence but it would probably get deleted as a “dump”)
    During today’s hearing, Rep. Gaetz played the audio from a January 9, 2019, CNN interview with Majority Whip Jim Clyburn (D-SC-06). In the interview, Mr. Clyburn was asked: “Is there a humanitarian crisis on the southern border?” Mr. Clyburn responded with a dismissive chuckle, and stated “absolutely not.”

    Earlier this year, President Donald Trump and the Department of Homeland Security both insisted that a humanitarian crisis on the southern border existed, and that resources were needed to address it. Republicans in Congress, including Rep. Gaetz, were eager to pass legislation to address the crisis. Unfortunately, Democrats denied that a crisis even existed.

    At least you acknowledge the treatment of immigrants at the border is a crisis. Sure is shameful, keeping people with no soap or toothpaste or blankets. Kids seperated from parents.
    Trump wants money for more ice raids and deportations not to make life better for those incarcerated. That's what the democratic party are blocking. Also the stupid wall.
    Trumps lawyers arguing with a judge that basic hygiene facilities are not needed is disgusting. Even the judges are horrified by it. There is more than enough money to provide humane conditions it's just they choose not to.

    Again you miss the issue. It doesn't matter who built the cages. It matters what they are used for. It doesn't matter who deported more people, it matters how the deportations were committed and how the people were treated during their time in the care of the state. The Dems didn't aprove the funding because A, they believed any crisis was of Trump's own making and B, he wouldn't put the funds where they were supposed to go. Two very reasonable concerns. He has, after all, told about 10,000 lies since getting into office.

    Yep! Obama was bad, Trump is the worst. Whataboutism can end there.

    The centers currently are concentration camps. People who have long lived in the US are dragged from work, home, wherever. Reports of rape, sexual harrassment and deaths. This is quite different from Obama era.

    It's obvious that the alt right troll army here doesn't care about that all, so Ill ignore your "lol" oneliners, y'all could do with some empathy and literacy training.

    Immigrant Detention Conditions Were Atrocious Under Obama. Here’s Why They’re So Much Worse Under Trump.

    The alt right trolls will just say "lol slate.com" and continue sharing FOX News clips, but if anyone else wants to know what has changed with the detention/concentration centers in Trump times, here's an intro

    And a reminder that we don't need y'all to invoke Godwins law here

    What else could be done?

    The DHS has been asking for funds for the crisis at the border, only to be told what crisis?

    For months we were watching on the news about a caravan arriving from central America only for the likes of Don Lemon on CNN and other MSM to say it's just a manufactured crisis from Trump looking for money to build his wall.

    The caravan hits and boom. There suddenly is a crisis and the blame is put on those who were asking for extra funding to stop this from happening. :confused:

    So, the usual woke idiocy of complaining about something being a disgrace without even having a vague outline of what you'd do to make the situation better?

    Good man. Keep championing the cause of criminals just because other people on twitter are telling you that it is a bad thing that you should be real mad about.

    Dont use twitter mate??....but keep hurling abuse in favour of actually critisng anyone for trampleing all over civil rights

    The audio of the most recent interview with her is hilarious.

    She completely backpedals and just basically mumbles that it didn't happen the way she claimed it did initially.

    All this happened because the guy in question didn't let himself be misrepresented as a racist. She acted like an arsehole and he called her on it so she immediately played the race card.

    The classic double down.
