Taking children as hostage, isn't that the lowest trick in the book? Looking at the news sites this morning, I realized that's what the Trump administration is doing. Take the children and then use them as a bargaining chip all the while blaming the whole thing on their political enemies.
Truly the devil's bargain
Want people's innocent children back? Just agree to these demands. The wall, harsher penalties for immigrants, imprisonment for asylum seekers, DACA cancellation. So now this child is the pawn. I saw the interview this morning with the advieor blaming the parents. After intense questioning the adviser admitted it was a practice not a law.
That's what the Nazis did. They would seize the children or the elders or the family and the Jewish Council's had to make terrible bargains in order to get them back. Now, these councils are blamed for colluding with the deportations and the aktions but they were faced with impossible situations.
So, no, I don't want the Democrats to fold in the face of this cruel blackmail. I want it exposed for the immoral practice that it is.
How can they live with themselves?
