Dems’ true goal is to end all border enforcement:
"President Trump climbed down on separating families at the border, but the underlying argument isn’t going away.
The central question at the border isn’t whether we should separate families — even most hard-liners in the Trump administration would prefer to hold families together — but whether migrants should stay in the United States or not.
...Fact is Democrats, in particular, didn’t give us any of the rules that have made closing the border to Central American migrants impossible.
The Flores consent decree, which makes it difficult to hold kids longer than about 20 days, grew out of a court case 20 years ago.
An anti-trafficking law that prevents us from quickly returning home Central American kids — because they are from noncontiguous countries — was a bipartisan measure signed into law by George W. Bush.
What is true is that the law makes it impossible to hold Central American parents and children together for any length of time.
The children have to be released, and if you are going to keep them together with their parents, the parents have to be released, too.
This is the forcing mechanism for waving Central American migrants into the country — more than a quarter of a million children and members of a family group over the past two and a half years — and Trump is right that Democrats have no interest in changing it..."
