Should this child receive asylum or be deported? Republicans think it depends

Should this child receive asylum or be deported? Republicans think it depends | Julio Ricardo Varela

Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump exhibited the most blatant example of political hypocrisy when he told FOX News’ Bill O’Reilly on Tuesday that the “unbelievable humanitarian problem” of thecurrent migration crisis gripping the EU would force even him to take action if he were president.

When O’Reilly asked Trump if he would oppose people from the Middle East and Africa from seeking refuge in the United States, Trump said, “I hate the concept of it, but on a humanitarian basis, with what’s happening, you have to.” He closed with this: “You know, it’s living in hell in Syria, there’s no question about it. They’re living in hell.”

Ironically, there are many others in this world – specifically, people from Mexico and Central America – “living in hell”, yet, in a Trump administration, those individuals would just be “criminals” who must be deported and could never be classified as “refugees”. Americans like Trump can show begrudging compassion towards migrants entering Germany, but they continue to have an aversion to an ongoing crisis that has seen thousands of children and families detained at the southern border since 2013.

This week a report from the Migration Policy Institute said:

Together, the United States and Mexico have apprehended almost 1 million people who originated from the Northern Triangle of Central America in the past five years, and have deported more than 800,000 of them. Many of these were children. Between 2010 and 2014, around 130,000 minors were apprehended and more than 40,000 deported back to El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras, the three countries that constitute the Northern Triangle.

For Trump and his supporters – as well as the Obama administration, which is carrying out a record number of deportations right now – these almost 1 million people were not “refugees”, despite the fact, as Pedro Moreno Vasquez summarized In XpatNation, the core reasons behind the southern migrant crisis aren’t dissimilar from the one in Europe: Guatemalans experienced an earthquake in 2012; Honduras continues to be plagued by violence; and El Salvador is witnessing its bloodiest year in a decade.

Every time lefties bring up an issue like this they should be aware that most of the time no matter what the issue is Bill Clinton did it bigger. Remember when big dumb Janet Reno ordered the invasion of a private residence in Florida by an army of federal officers and they found a kid's uncle hiding the target in a closet? Elion Gonzales's mother died trying to bring him from Cuba to the United States but Bill Clinton sent him back to Cuba.

Well, back when his name was Drumpf, they let Trump in.

What's he gonna do?

Build a "beautiful fence"?

Asshole will say anything he thinks the low-info RWs will gobble up.

Considering what Republicans want to do with the born in this country, I would assume they would be worse with non citizens.
