You support people like Roy Moore. If I were your relative I wouldn't trust you at all. Disgusting post but par for the course for you.

You also stated in the same post that the parents took the risk so we shouldn't reward said risk so you obfuscated you original point by saying it was fine the kids were taken because they parents came here illegally and we dont want to reward that behavior
The risk I outlined was not the separation at the border. The risk I outlined was human trafficking, drug trafficking, etc.That’s why it is a difficult discussion. Many don’t survive the trip.
But reducing nuanced discussion to a sentence hot take for NT likes is silly. And it doesn’t, at all, accurately convey my stance on the issue. If you want to discuss undocumented immigration and illegal entry substantively I’m down.
But saying I don’t care about them is inaccurate. I care deeply. I think many in here disagree on the appropriate solution.

Hypothetically, let’s say you did know about the indictment because it was a local man in your small town. He is responding to your search for a babysitter. He offers to do it.
How do you proceed?

True but the glaring omission is what Mayor Pete was likely calling out. Biden needs to drop out of the race.

Not surprising. DWalk likes it when children are being taken advantage of.
The only way he'd champion for this harder is if they were being sexually abused.
Oh wait
It all makes sense now.

In that hypothetical I would tell him that we have decided to go with another candidate and thank him for his consideration.

Probably the worst NTer out right now. There was a time where taking advantage of minors was a bad thing across the board. Not with this guy, he will cape for Roy Moore until the end. Disgusting.

Just making a general point.
There is a distinct difference between caged kids during the Obama Administration and the Trump administration.
In the Obama Administration, child separation was an unfortunate biproduct of illegal immigration that often couldn’t be avoided.
In the Trump Administration however, child separation was not a biproduct. It was the goal.
Child separation was a policy, not an unfortunate biproduct. Specifically, it was a policy meant to function as a “deterrent.”
Illegal immigration prosecutions were drastically ramped up, thus increasing the number of children separated. The amount of immigration judges could not keep up with the number of prosecutions, resulting in lengthy delays and the hiring of immigration judges without any experience in immigration law. The Administration also struggled to keep records of child separations.
Child separation and kids in cages took place in both administrations but a closer looks reveals a stark difference in the administrations’ handling of it.

Because I think it would be negligent for me to make that hire. Within the strictures of your hypothetical.
In reality I wouldn’t go about hiring a babysitter that way. And if I take my child to daycare I would have no idea whether everyone hired had never been accused of sexual misconduct.

Just because sex trafficking exists doesn’t mean prostitution should not be legalized. Correlation and causation discussion for sure.

Romney emptying his clip right now
Mitt showing the first actual sign of a spine out of anyone in the GOP during this ****show presidency
He doesn't have the memory of a goldfish or his tail tucked between his legs like his colleagues

romney > ___ for that.
good **** for standing up for what's right and being honest in a (what has sadly become a) traitorous party full of dishonesty.
real talk, he stuck his neck out. sad that we have to give props to something that should be a given but it is what it is.
romney is probably done politically after this as long as the GOP is how it is. smh.

He’s been done. Remember the CPAC un-invite? Lol
From what I’ve read, Mitt doesn’t really depend on or need the GOP.
Everyone magically has a backbone when they’re not associated with this piece of **** party.

Mitt's having his 'maverick' moment rn, took some balls cause he's 100% gonna suffer for it politically but credit where credit is due tbf regardless of how I feel about him personally and politically.
Even if it's basically just upholding his constitutional oath but even that is still much much more than any of his colleagues are willing to do
You don't ever see folks putting their necks out or sacrificing their careers for the sake of their country over party anymore
