Republicans like many on this board can’t seem to grasp what a false equivalency fallacy is.
The only circumstance in which children were separated at the border under Obama is when their parents commit other crimes. It’s criminal court that separates people. Obama treated illegals as a civil matter and Trump does criminal for no goddamn reason. It was RARE for this separation to happen under Obama.
Oh and let’s also not forget the “whataboutism” fallacy of making this comparison:
“Wahhh Obama did it too so it’s not a big deal Trump did it derp derp derp!
