As we told you on Monday, MSNBC’s Chris Hayes declared that the “separation of parents and children” by ICE is unprecedented and that the Trump administration is treating illegal immigrants like livestock:
Just a thought but maybe the US government is treating immigrant children like livestock because the president sees them as animals.

Even better, the CNN report links to a 2011 study by the Race Forward think tank that highlights similar stories to what we libs are trying to say is something new by Trump. From the Executive Summary:
But, of course, the same blue-check libs angry at Trump never opened their mouths when Obama was president:
All it took to expose horrible treatment of immigrants during the Obama administration was for Trump to become president.
