Donald Trump has signed an executive order ending the policy of family separation at the border. Democrats should be doing cartwheels and applauding the president. After all, this is what they wanted, right? It was all about the children, right?
Nope.
The ink isn’t even dry on the new executive order ending separation policy & some Democrats already arguing that keeping families together isn’t enough. Now they want them & their parents released after unlawful entry knowing full well that high % will never appear for hearing

It. Was. Never. Going. To. Be. Enough.
See, folks. Democrats didn't care under Obama, and they don't care now. This isn't about the kids.
With Democrats, it's never really ever about the kids. https://t.co/JbBJXDGBcF

And this – friends – is the ONLY reason this is an issue. The end game is open borders. https://t.co/tAxCrIiKOz

Exactly. As Twitchy told you, Democratic Sen. Richard Blumenthal wasted no time criticizing the executive order as “inhumane and ineffective.” This was after comparing the family separation policy to the Holocaust. Not to be outdone, Kamala Harris chimed in with her own brilliance:
This Executive Order doesn’t fix the crisis. Indefinitely detaining children with their families in camps is inhumane and will not make us safe.

Welp.
Nobody saw this coming… https://t.co/U5SXhtd1ms

And by “nobody,” you mean “everybody.”
When the President does something you've been demanding of him for days, and then you continue to bitch about it, you can no longer be taken seriously. This tweet was predictable because you're a joke.

It was never going to just be about family separation https://t.co/QTTDX6olje

Nope. Never.

Heh.
There it is, the moving of the goalposts. Ha ha ha. You guys are too predictable.

I mean, they can always go back home if the objection is that they’re in detention awaiting hearing.
But that’s not what you or any of your colleagues want, is it? https://t.co/74jR3GTEe9

So it really wasn’t about the kids. It’s about zero border control with you people, isn’t it?

Can’t win. This is about the left believing the crime of entering the country illegally shouldn’t be prosecuted. They want them released into th U.S. indefinitely, which only drives us to another crisis. https://t.co/phO4mqRv9j

Just to be clear, separating children from parents is inhumane, and keeping children with parents is inhumane. Which means the only humane solution is release. Which is the entire agenda. https://t.co/ADm4WojU3Z

Atta girl, Kamala. Gotta get out ahead of it. Democrats have been working hard to spin good news into bad this year. I love watching those wheels spin! https://t.co/QzRiVXIeqQ
— Kira (@RealKiraDavis) June 20, 2018
Those wheels are gonna spin the Democrats right into the ground. Again.
As long as the discussion is about immigration, it reminds me why Trump won and why I want better border enforcement. So by all means, keep digging. https://t.co/Fixd5ZMrAi

Back they go then. If you think open borders is a winner for November, keep at it.
