'Separated' Looks At The Border Humanitarian Crisis | Morning Joe | MSNBC
Republicans are just as guilty as Trumps Administration.
They Enabled This.
@Tofy the Bear you’re right, they did enable this and now they have to live with it 🙁
If you haven’t heard, President Trump is a member of the Republican party?
@MadNinjaGato ShadowThen why are the confederate democrats that founded the KKK. saying this is Trumps fault.
@TONY Because Tony, just because.
White Christian evangelicals (which is the base of trumpism) are just as guilty.
Be warned… The Anti-Christ is alive and living in the people’s white house.
@William H Actually the majority of bots start with WIlliam H and are still waiting for their first sexual experience to happen, although it never will because they have a very teeny weeny penius
@Tech ti Sorry… who are you speaking about, Boris? Is this about conservatives? Can you be more specific and repetitive about what type of person you are referring to?
i seriously cant believe evangelicals don´t remember that idolatry is a sin
Well mr trump did say he’s the chosen one…. he just didnt say who chose him.
Actually the confederates were democrats and founders of the KKK
Melania and her parents got US Citizenship Real fast…. to cut all those pesky immigration red tape just be a mail order bride and marry the Orange Bunker Boi Cheeto.
@William H 👍
And what benefit has she & her parents been to the US?
really? exactly how fast? … and when?
William H what’s your point?
Her father looks exactly like the Dumpster and was a member of the communist party …..fun fact
I remember to words” Humanitarian Crisis” always went with some OTHER country.
@KrystalOcean immigrants from the richest places in the world with a deep pocket and rich culture, not illegals from 3rd world, I think you are smart enough to draw the distinction
@KrystalOcean Trump did say he welcomes people from countries like Norway . He is just not too welcoming to Mexicans and other poor demographic which have nothing to offer to the American land or its people
@Rajat Chatterjee DONT BE SO NIEVE! poor country People work for cheap and Republicans love cheap labor and Dems. are PRO-LABOR! the Philosophy is simple when i was a business owner i voted republican to screw my employees , then I got a HIGH PAYING UNION JOB AND NOW VOTE DEMOCRAT! the republicans couldve stopped this years ago but they make too much money from the labor!
AND WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT COULTURE…pretty standard now a days to have pinattas at kids birthday partys, the kids love them! The food is FANTASTIC and my house with the beautiful spanish arches is now worth about a million bucks! I dont know what Norway brings to the table besides hearring and ICE SKATING!
@Moscow Mitch something that a commie would say
No surprise about Katie Miller’s stance,after all she is Stephen Millers wife. Bird of a feather…..
Charles Leano from the phrase “birds of a feather flock together”, meaning like minded people gravitate towards each other.
@Laura Meakin i should have known…thanks
Someone married him?
S. M. 😂
He is the daytime vampire
The Trump Flu turned out to endanger my community more than any non-existent lawless caravan.
It’s the making people sick, God say stay off the moon, I have a tip from my teacher said mercy fails from the moon and are body acne worse now headaches and breathing difficulties and body aches need healy juice black seed tea or oil God bless
“non-existent lawless caravan” … thats funny
Tech ti why don’t you enter politics, if you don’t like it try to change it.
@Noah Spurrier thanks for pointing that out, i was gonna reply to tech ti but now that you mention he might be a russian troll i suggest lets not even reply at all, dont feed the fire, it’s a waste of time
How lucky you are to have such great men and women protecting our borders so not a concern for your community. The proof is in your statement.
The fetid slime just oozes from Trump’s every pore.
Trump is impotent
@Leeanne Bishop Insult Trump, not women who are going about their business, this is misogyny.
@DOE John 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yes! And, can you imagine what that Demon leaves behind on his toilet seat ?!!!!
How many illegals live with you , hero?
I don’t see how you people who call yourselves “Christians” can stomach this.
@Margaret Brauer Well said.
I do not know how you people who call yourselves “Democrats” support every human aberration, baby killing, government fraud, human trafficking and all other social ailments that are destroying this great nation.
Too. many so called Christian think they are Christian because they are anti abortion and anti LBGT. As we have read , Jesus says to love our neighbor as ourselves.
Evangelical Christians = A wolf in sheep’s clothing.
Exactly!!!
Seriously, I heard that, in the fall, as the weather gets cooler, Trump will magically disappear.
@Natalie Johnson yup, and he try’n hard, got his thumb in the air hitch-hiking for that last ride to coronaville, Hwy.19.
Melania found asylum in the United States, a lunatic asylum at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
That _is_ a good one. Of course, he isn’t likely to go quietly and even then …
BUT, if we don’t shrink from our task of investigating and prosecuting Trump, his family and every repub for at least some of their many crimes — they won’t have much time to bother us. And Twitter’s not allowed in prison.
We wish 🙏🙏🙏🙏
I like that!! Best thing I’ve heard allday!!
Senate could and should have stopped this “man” but voted not to impeach. The price we pay for the power hungry, doing things, I wouldn’t do to a dog.
presiDeath tRump WAS impeached. He will have an asterisk next to his name forever, FOR-EV-ER. He was impeached by the House, but the Senate chose not to remove him from office. Like with Former President Bill Clinton, he has an asterisk, he was impeached by the House, but the Senate chose not to remove him from office.
@KrystalOcean Right they voted not to remove him and we are all paying the price.
he was impeached !!! just not removed
This the most abominable thing we’ve done. It is indefensible, separating children from their parents. It is a crime against humanity and i hope they all go to prison.
Hi Kristi, not the worst thing the U.S. has done to other people…Native American genocide, slavery….let’s just say this latest atrocity that our beloved country has committed makes the the top ten!
@Juris Girl But guess what? Unlike the Kenyan and other Dems, Trump hasn’t FLOPPED.
@Gary Quarty they aren’t arrested though and have committed no crime. But say you’re right, how does that justify the way these children have been treated?
The law has been on the books for years dummy. You can’t lock kids up in jail with their criminal parents.
I’ve got one the word to say to people who defend this abomination: karma.
The GOP senators could’ve removed this madman but cowered and left the country to die by the thousands!
This is the truth. That was our only chance of getting rid of him and they failed their duties and should all be put in prison in my opinion. Charged as accessories to Trump’s crimes against humanity and democracy. Foreign relations are a big fail and now over 130,000 people are dead because he couldn’t be bothered to make any effort to protect Americans, he only cares about himself. A lot of his supporters are literally brainwashed by him and right wing media but the GOP?? They knew better. They knew he was incompetent and immoral and worse.
the republican party is done
Faith Alessandri – yes! In my opinion, every single GOP senator and MAGAt that supports presiDeath tRump should be marked with A Scarlet T on their foreheads so they are reminded publicly and privately every single day of their disgusting choices.
It happened because of the OVAL OFFICE, Stephen Miller and anyone who is affiliated with this GOP Administration. VOTE NOV 3rd !!!
My vote didn’t matter last time as i didn’t vote for trump last time and now my state is dearly paying for it
@Joseph Gunsher You are far from alone. I’ve voted in my deep red state since Nixon’s second term so I’m right in the the same boat with you. We had the pleasure of a Trump beer hall rally a few weeks ago in Tulsa, and, of course, the pandemic is spreading faster than ever.
Remember, he put kids in cages and brought BABIES into immigration court without representation just to establish ‘paperwork’ for deportation at a later date. These are concentration camps.
and who built those cages? obama did!
He goes on about fake stuff like “the caravan” and “Obamagate” while calling genuine threats such as COVID-19, climate change, and Russian interference in our elections “hoaxes.” Vote this abysmal con man out!
Allan Burns
Don’t forget the bounties that Putin placed on the heads of U.S. troops in Afghanistan. Wish he wasn’t afraid to call out Putin as he does Mexican migrant and other groups.
His brain cells are not holding hands. 25th amendment
Trump is going to only get worse which will further drive down his support. The pressure of being reelected could lead to Trump’s demise from a stroke.
@Lisa Garrison
lol

Mr. Bonespurs has nothing left to sell but fear and hate…
USA: Policy of separating children from parents is nothing short of torture
“This is a spectacularly cruel policy, where frightened children are being ripped from their parent’s arms and taken to overflowing detention centers, which are effectively cages. This is nothing short of torture. The severe mental suffering that officials have intentionally inflicted on these families for coercive purposes, means that these acts meet the definitions of torture under both U.S. and international law,” said Erika Guevara-Rosas, Amnesty International’s Americas Director.
“Make no mistake; these family separations are a crisis of the government’s own making. The U.S. government is playing a sick game with these families’ lives by playing politics with what is a serious and mounting refugee crisis.”
-Erika Guevara-Rosas

The ones down voting this fact that this administration has conducted torture should be ashamed. They are nothing more than Russian trolls and operatives who support dictatorship.
wrong on both accounts
@Paul Wilson You’re right. It’s just simply cranially deficient Chrump TR45H.
Gary D : i’ve never seen anyone filled with as much rage & hatred as tRUMP & his deplorable followers ! tRUMP loves riling them up, this is how he gets his pleasure. I honestly believe that he is a sadist & that is one of the things that makes him so dangerous .
@Lynne Ninonuevo Certainly is fueled by sadism. ANYthing to rial up his worshipers in turn firing up his ever present EGO. Chrump TR45H is a blight on society as are corporate dems. : ( We stupidly lost our only hope with Sanders, setting us back many years.
The so-called “Christians” are the “Tares amongst the Wheat”😳
This was/ is devastating. I can’t believe my beloved America would not only allow this, but promote it.
