The Trump supporter defense on Nazi-style concentration camps...

"If they didn't want their children taken from them, they shouldn't have illegally crossed the border."

Literally the only defense I've seen repeated over and over and over on social media, twitter, forums, etc. That's all they have. I remind them Asylum seeking is perfectly legal, and even if they crossed the border illegally, it's a misdemeanor. Destroying the lives of children over a misdemeanor is evil.

But I'm so sick of them citing "illegal border crossing" as their only justification for this crap. They have absolutely no other argument.

backlogged for days and not letting people in. People are waiting around for a week....they can't so they are forcing them to cross illegally and then they get to arrest them. They are setting them up.

Claiming that it’s only the “MSM narrative” and that the “truth” is far different.

They’ll justify anything without any proof.
