So... About the whole separating kids from their parents thing:

The last time I saw so many rationalizations, minimizations, false equivalencies, deflections and “whataboutisms” that trumpers use to try to defend the indefensible I was watching an old video of the Nuremberg Trials.

BTW: Where are the videos/photos of incarcerated girls/toddlers?
Speculating here... Might it be feared by the administration those images will generate even greater outrage and alienate even more voters? Maybe it’s thought that by showing only young males - known to the right to be culturally and biologically predetermined to mature into drug runners and gang members with calves the size of cantaloupes - less empathy will be generated. You show little girls and toddlers though? Christ! We can’t do that! We’ll lose votes!

If it can’t stand scrutiny it’s no good.

is that the Germans were a lot more articulate.



Otherwise, no difference. "Not our fault. Trying to protect our homeland. Everybody was against us. I wasn't in favor of what we did." And then there was what the Nazis said...
