He put almost half a million children in cages last time, family seperations are tame compared to that.
The cages are still on the border, being used by various state governments (Abbott’s been zealous about entrapping, imprisoning, and torturing migrants until they “voluntarily” agree to federal deportation).
One of the more frustrating aspects of the Democratic immigration platform has been their blasé attitude towards state fascism and brutality. Hatred for migrants runs far too deep in the US, and liberals are terrified of running counter to it especially during an election season. So Trump can run around on the border cheering, while state troopers harass, illegally detain, and torture spouses of US citizens. ICE staff do less than nothing, often facilitating state officials in their efforts to inflict abuse and cover it up afterwards.
Meanwhile, the DNC platforms a congo line of anti-migrant Republican politicians in an effort to appease this block of single-issue voters.
