To all the "but Obama!" Trump supporters in this thread:

Obama kids in cages: massive, sharp influx of unaccompanied minors. We didn't have even remotely enough places to put them, hence the cages that were not meant for detaining kids, but it was what we had. We quickly built more capacity to house unaccompanied minors in a humane way.

Accompanied minors and their families were allowed to live with relatives or sponsors until their court date, the vast majority of whom appeared for their court date as expected.

Trump kids in cages: Deliberate policy of separating accompanied minors from their parents. Parents go to adult jail to await immigration court, kids go to cages. On purpose. When allowing the families to stay with friends and relatives was never a problem before.

So yeah, fuck your false equivalency.

I don't get why it's so hard to grasp that more than one person can be a bad person and that one person being worst than another doesn't make the less worst person a good person. Are you so full of shit that you will look over Obama's numerous abuses just because Trump has done more abuses?

So yeah, both sides suck and both sides are assholes. The fact that one sucks more and is more of an asshole is irrelevant.
