Family Separation at the Border: UN & Laura Bush condemn policy
Agree with your first paragraph. That is my exact point.
2nd paragraph - yes, obviously not 100% but in large part I feel the Democratic Party is just fine with status quo. Obviously #samplesize, but I think an unscientific poll of the democrats on this board would affirm that opinion.
Morality is an ineffective way to make they case against this policy that Trump has implemented. Moral codes are fluid and can be adjust to meet societal or individual desires. The effective argument is to perhaps appeal to people's empathy and to think about their own children or how they would feel if they were separated from the parents when young, but the more effective argument here is to consider the probability of this strategy actually having any effect on over all illegal immigration rates, which it won't in any sustained to measurable way.
As for the bolded...what does this mean? are you asserting that Democrats do not see illegal immigration as a problem?
