Trump administration's ability to keep records

I'm steaming. My BP is rising. My stomach is churning. The Trump administration says it cannot keep track of infants, children or parents separated by them at the border. Yet I'm watching the Rachel Maddow Show and, son of a gun, they can keep track of individual girls' menstrual cycles.

I have never been so repulsed by any human. I've been committed to this since 11/16, but let me reiterate that I will work tirelessly, donate generously and vote joyously for Democrats in 2020 which cannot arrive soon enough.

And each family member an unique individual number. The file would have an alternate index on last name/first name. It is not a complicated data base to build and maintain. It causes a problem only if you don't have either the account number or name of a family member. You just need a single hit to have the account number for all family members. It would be a problem only if the family members crossed the border at different times meaning they were already separated.
