Jeb Bush Demands Trump End ‘Heartless’ Child Border Policy
breitbart ^ | Joshua Caplan

Posted on 06/18/2018 12:15:04 PM PDT by davikkm

Former Florida Governor Jeb Bush is calling on President Donald Trump to end the “heartless” policy of separating immigrant children from their parents at the U.S. border. “Children shouldn’t be used as a negotiating tool,” Bush tweeted on Monday. “@realDonaldTrump should end this heartless policy and Congress should get an immigration deal done that provides for asylum reform, border security and a path to citizenship for Dreamers.”

The failed presidential candidate’s plea came in response to President Trump’s tweet in which he vowed to stop “some of the worst criminals on earth,” from using children to illegally enter the U.S.

“Children are being used by some of the worst criminals on earth as a means to enter our country,” President Trump said. “Has anyone been looking at the Crime taking place south of the border. It is historic, with some countries the most dangerous places in the world. Not going to happen in the U.S.”

Bush joins a chorus of Republicans, such as Nebraska Senator Ben Sasse and Ohio Governor John Kasich, calling for the policy to be halted.

“Let’s get it right. We’re America,” the Ohio governor said in a video posted to Twitter last Friday. “We have a big heart. We love people. At the end of the day, we don’t want to create an image that we don’t care, because we really do.”

It’s too bad the Texans have yet to figure out the Bushes; the Arkansans figured out the Clintons much earlier.

Have you ever noticed that just about the only time the Bushes make public political statements these days is to advocate on behalf of illegal immigrants?

Furthermore, when W. was President, pretty much the only times he seemed passionate or articulate about an issue was when he was pushing for "immigration reform."

It really tells you a lot about where and with whom their priorities and sympathies lie.

Where were these knights in shining armor when the DEMS implemented that policy and held the kids in CAGES?

It’s easy to be the hero when you are not going to suffer any repercussions for it.

Senator Sasse is a intellectually dishonest, disingenuous and opportunistic jackass. He puts himself forward as a stalwart expert and defender of the Constitution - then condemns the President for enforcing the laws the Congress has passed.

Does Sasse now desire that the President of the United States, who is constitutionally obligated by the oath of office to enforce the nation’s laws, now no longer do so?

Is Yeb upset that Paul Manafort, who was sent to prison last week, has been separated from his daughters?

I hate the RINO’s so much! They are the reason we are in this nightmare. They and their weak policies have allowed our culture to be erroded right from underneath our feet.

Jen bush, go back to hell or whatever country club you crawled out of.

WE DON’T NEED OR WANT YOUR INPUT!!!!

Scum bags!

Did you hear about Laura Bush and the other first ladies chiming in on the illegal immigrants kids situation? Laura said that it broke her heart. Well Laura, when your husband supported those free trade policies he put millions of Americans out of work...GEORGE W. BUSH MADE MILLIONS OF AMERICAN CHILDREN POOR WHEN HE PUT THEIR PARENTS OUT OF WORK!

Not only that but the husbands of the other first ladies also supported the free trade bills that send millions of jobs to China and other places. You are all elite globalists and you do not care about OUR children so SHUT UP!

Bush joins...Nebraska Senator Ben Sasse and Ohio Governor John Kasich...
A trio of whiners.

_____________

I predict Kasich ends up with his own MSNBC show in a couple of years. The guy is on the road to going full-blown Scraborough.
