Caitlin Dickinson is your typical 100% Mainstream so-called journalist. White Nationalists HATE trump, yet she did not mention this in a recent Yahoo article!
I do have empathy for those who are made to wait outside our borders but at the same time, I got tired of all the complaints about our facilities from a people who came here illegally. The storm of people jamming our borders was an impossibility to contend with. Their expectations are extremely unreasonable. It’s like trying to deal with thousands of toddlers who are tired and hungry. How in the world did their countries get so out of control that their people had to go elsewhere in order to live. I have lived overseas and we did not go there unprepared. We did not expect others to take care of our needs. I realize that most of these people probably didn’t have enough to begin with but trying to legally come here would have been easier for them and for us. They have created a mess and expect us to clean it up. No more complaints, please. It doesn’t help your cause.
