Sen. Corker is right, the GOP has become a cult.

Which means 42% of all Americans are beyond disgusting from your POV. How disgusting is that?

Really? Remember these pics from just a few years ago? Was Obama having a tantrum too?

Had to google it. What a joke. Just like Whell. Not surprised it’s where he goes for his fake “news”.
The Daily Caller is a conservative American “news” and opinion website based in Washington, D.C. It was founded by political pundit Tucker Carlson and Neil Patel, former adviser to former Vice President Dick Cheney.

The Daily Caller makes Fox News seem like objective journalism. Peruse for a moment all of their counterfactual "reporting" (i.e., propaganda).
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Da...#Controversies
And Whell calls the WaPo and NYT "fake news?" Idjit.

Nah, discrediting the source rather than dealing with the facts, and using terms like "whataboutism" is what folks do when they're on the losing end of an argument.

See post about about attempting to discredit the source rather than dealing with the facts presented. It's core to your debate style.

But the Obama administration hasn’t extended that caring attitude to another huge group of Central American migrant kids—those traveling with a parent or guardian, usually their mother. In fiscal 2014, according to data from US Customs and Border Protection, these so-called family unit apprehensions nearly quadrupled. By comparison, the increase in kids arriving at the border alone—the surge that put Capitol Hill in a crisis mode—was a relatively modest 77 percent.
In perhaps the biggest policy reversal since the surge began, the federal government has rebuilt the controversial family detention system it gutted only a few years ago, in no small part to send a message to would-be immigrants—even though 98 percent of those at one Texas detention facility were asylum seekers who claimed that they feared returning to their home countries, according to a recent report by the Women’s Refugee Commission and the Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service. “I certainly would’ve never expected it from this administration,” said the WRC’s Michelle Brané, who coauthored the report. “Why they went for this draconian detention, I just don’t get it.”
Detaining families indefinitely to "send a message" via a "policy change". Sounds just like Trump "sending a message".
Except that neither are true. What's true is what I posted earlier. The system itself is a mess. And both sides blaming doesn't fix anything.
