There's no chance that even a full mea culpa is going to put out this fire he started. Conditions must be horrendous, and the political ground must be magma hot for them to even consider reversing or giving way today. I'd bet we're going to see some devastating reports about conditions at the internment camps right on the heels of whatever they're trying to squirm out from under with this faux fix, this phony reversal.

(3,784 posts)So while all those children sat in cages terrified, this asshole insisted there was nothing he could do. And then waited several weeks to do something he insisted he couldn't do. Don't let people forget. And don't let the media portray him as some kind of hero.
