Trump wants to eliminate immigration judges.
‘I’m ready to close it if I have to close it… We don’t want people coming up on this dangerous journey and coming in… And what we have to do is Congress has to meet quickly and make a deal. I could do it in 45 minutes. We need to get rid of chain migration, we need to get rid of catch and release and visa lottery and we have to do something about asylum and to be honest you have to get rid of judges.’

So you don’t want fewer refugees which would mean fewer “ children suffering “ ?
It sounds like you are OK with any amount of children suffering as long as the political objective is achieved .
Which would mean the kids are just pawns in the game and easily sacrificed .
BTW It’s not illegal to apply for asylum at points of entry.
But it is illegal to cross the border at unauthorized points .
On immigration, Trump says he wants to 'get rid of judges'
"[W]hat we have to do is Congress has to meet quickly and make a deal. I could do it in 45 minutes. We need to get rid of chain migration. We need to get rid of catch and release and visa lottery. And we have to do something about asylum. And to be honest with you, you have to get rid of judges."
But it was that moment of candor -- he believes the United States needs to "get rid of judges" -- that stood out.
Trump didn't go into a lot of detail, but in context, he almost certainly wasn't referring to sitting jurists serving lifetime positions on the federal judiciary. Rather, I'm reasonably sure the president was referring to immigration judges -- whom he apparently wants to fire.

Do you think the illegals coming here really care about you or this country?
Some of them don't.
But I think like with any group of human beings most of them are decent people that do care about others.
I think people need to believe that all or a majority of illegals are bad people so they don't feel guilty for hating or fearing, or seeing them as a threat.
When the truth is, so I believe, that most illegals coming here are just here to have a good quit life. To love and be free. Same thing that you and I want.

Again.. you're missing what I'm saying.
I'm talking open borders. I'm saying open the gates, let people in.
That way we don't need the camps at all.

Actually, I do, and so do a lot of others. It's allowed, even if it makes you sad.

The Liberals are using the welfare of children to their advantage again .
The way to end this mess is with a wall or permanent barrier .
Instead the Liberals would rather see children suffer .
We (the liberals....all of us) would like to state that we collectively agree that we believe that the mistreatment of children should be above partisan politics and that even the right should agree that children suffering is wrong regardless of politics.
We understand that this may be politically inconvenient for you lot but we would ask that you rise above the politics of this and call out the mistreatment of children regardless.
Yours kindly...
The collective hive mind that is "the liberals"
So, isn't the humane solution not to allow them into this country if they are destined to be treated worse the the fearful country they are fleeing?
Thanks for agreeing we need to stop them all at the border.
Kudos!
No we feel improving the conditions in these facilities would be the optimal solution.
No one cares what you think about our borders. You live on a damn island. Jeez.
You don’t live in the U.S. either so no one cares what you think either.
People that know from concentrations camps, like George Takei and others who were interned during WWII, are calling them concentration camps. Your argument is with them...I just trust their assessment over yours.

You are either comfortable with the way these camps are being run, or you're not. You are defined by your answers, simple as that.
Well first they are not camps, they are detention centers.
The term "Libtards" is restricted to the mudpit. I don't go there because of such insults. Please keep your discourse civil when you leave that forum.
You also need to remember the libtards under Obama talked a good talk about fixing it and did nothing, Obama even deported more than Trump but did nothing. If you are OK with doing nothing then I guess everyone but Trump is doing what you want them to do.
