Obama's purpose was for humanitarian reasons to protect the children from predators.
LMAO.
When Trump puts kids in holding facilities it's disgusting and shameful..... But when Obama did the exact same thing it was humane.
ANY person who believes that narrative is dumber than a box of rocks.
I can't help it if you're to brain washed to know the difference. Once again, Trumpybear's policy difference is that they classify everyone who crosses the border as a criminal deserving to separated from their children. Furthernore, they let everyone know that the migrant children were being taken from the parents as a way to discourage future immigrants. Obama's policy did separate children from criminals who crimes were more serious than just crossing into our country seeking refuge.
HEY DUMMY!!!
Whether it’s by crossing the U.S. border with a "coyote" or buying a fake U.S. passport, a foreign national who enters the U.S. illegally
can be both convicted
of a crime and held responsible for a civil violation under the U.S. immigration laws.
Illegal entry (or "improper entry") to the US carries criminal penalties (fines and jail or prison time), in addition to civil penalties and immigration consequences

HEY DUMMY!!! If you are convicted of a crime, i.e. crossing the border
YOU ARE A CRIMINAL!!!
Why is that so complicated?
Then it shouldn't be too hard for you to understand the difference in how Obama treated them. It's been a crime for decades but very few Presidents were cruel enough to use that as a pretense to separate children from their families.
OH for god's sake "CRUEL"!!! Patently blown so out of proportion!
Right "Cruel" enough that they ENCOURAGED these parents of kids (many adults were NOT the parents by the way...)
Here is "cruelty"!!!
Many Republicans say
President Barack Obama has not done enough to stop illegal immigration and is therefore responsible for the surge of unaccompanied minors.
2014 was the biggest year. Overall, 68,541 minors entered through the southwestern United States border. This amount was almost double the amount in 2013. In 2015, the numbers dropped to 39,970, and rose again in 2016 with 59,692 unaccompanied minors arriving.
And you "passionate" feeling people have done EVERYTHING to encourage THIS!!!
"The coyotes charge about $3,000-$4,000 per child, an exorbitant sum for families, many who live on $1-$2 per day."
YOU in your anti-cruel efforts ENCOURAGED this behavior!
Number of unaccompanied minors entering the U.S. since fiscal year 2011 (U.S. Border Patrol figures)
- FY 2011: 16,067
- FY 2012: 24,481
- FY 2013: 38,833
- FY 2014: 68,541
- FY 2015: 39,970
- FY 2016: 59,692
Where was your angst when Obama ENCOURAGED 68,541 unaccompanied minors to enter the USA?
Oh and by the way
But of course here is how the biases "FACTcheckers" dispute Trump ..
In Tuesday, the President also claimed "cages" were built by Obama to house migrant children.
"Those cages that were shown -- I think they were very inappropriate --
they were built by President Obama's administration, not by Trump," the President said.
President Donald Trump said Tuesday that he's not considering reimplementing his administration's "zero-tolerance" immigration policy, dredging up his earlier claim that President Barack Obama's administration separated migrant families.

Facts First:
This appears to be true but requires context.
Requires "context"!!!! Of course when it is a Democrat..."CONTEXT" must be considered!
