Let's say this was true. It's not, but let's say it was.
Trump: "think of how evil that is."
Okay. THEN SHOULDN'T WE AS A MORAL NATION TAKE THESE PEOPLE IN WITHOUT DELAY AND PROTECT THEM?
Well? If not, WHY not. Be specific and show your work.

The follow up here is this bit: "True story told to me by the Border Patrol."
Okay, WHAT border patrol? Just some random junior agent? Or was it a qualified doctor? Is this accepted intel? Who collected the information? How was it verified. What's the sample size?

If we're turning people back at the border, then WHO did the "Border Patrol" collect this information FROM?
Did they interview mothers in Guatemala? Or is this just some rumor, unsubstantiated by any actual data?
It matters. Trump must be accountable for these comments.

And again, IF this *is* true, along with the other statements Trump has made about "blue tape" et al, then DON'T WE AS A MORAL PEOPLE HAVE AN OBLIGATION TO SAVE THESE VICTIMS, TO TAKE THEM IN?
If not, then why bring it up? Who cares. Not our problem.
Well?

Addendum:
You DO all see what Trump is saying, right?
He's not talking about STOPPING sexual assault on migrants, or helping victims.
He's saying if we build a wall and keep them on the other side of it, then IT'S NOT OUR PROBLEM.
That's what he's saying.

Addendum 2:
It should be noted Trump apparently understands how birth control pills work to same level as his understanding of climate change.
Or, you know, tariffs.
