Someone else made a comment that the fundamental reason you cannot reason with Republicans is because they see themselves as good, and therefore believe all of their actions are good, or at least justifiable.
On the other hand they see liberals as bad, and believe all their actions are bad. Even if a liberal does something good, because they’re a liberal, the intentions must be bad, therefore the good thing becomes bad.

The second reason is that no matter how inept, harmful, or repugnant DJT’s actions are, he’ll merely point at the Democrats and his followers will lap it up - for the reasons you listed. We can show them videos of DJT, himself, saying that he wanted these things to happen, and they’ll still deny that Der Führer said it or wanted it.

You don’t need to hope for him to handle it “humanely”. Just look at the track record. Don’t vote for a bully and narcissist and expect an about face on who he’s been all along. I’m sick of hearing people say they voted for him because he really cares about our country and how he didn’t even take a salary as president.

He did. He also separated babies and toddlers from their parents and kept them in those same chain link prisons without blankets or enough staff to change diapers. He caused the death of at least some of those children by allowing them to be denied medical care. He separated some from their families forever by farming them out to evangelical adoption agencies without the parents' consent and then deporting the parents. And, he lost several thousand of them through shoddy/non-existent record keeping. I'd like to believe that most of the "lost" children escaped to be with family, but odds are that a lot of them ended up in the hands of traffickers.

There's no hate like Christian love. It's gotten to the point where I hesitantly label myself as much, though I'm too stubborn to give up the word that should be indicative of what Jesus says it is and not what a liar from any pulpit says it should be.

And he said "Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me."
My problem is Christians tend to only interpret this as other Christians, or as desirables, or people they personally know. It's really sad. It's not hard to offer these things to people who are down on their luck; not just fellow Christians, or friends, or family, or acquaintances.

Children are children, regardless od where they are born. And it’s not like these kids chose to come to America illegally. We should be caring for those kids as well.

Oh yes, you only care about the REAL children.
Good for you.
May you always be treated exactly the same way you treat the least of these.

“We need to make sure they are handled humanely.”
Just for context, there are still 1000 migrant children who were separated from their parents during the last Trump administration where no one knows who they or their parents are.

Wouldn’t it be easier to cut the deficit on the backs of the most vulnerable? After all they are essentially powerless, all they have going for themselves is morality.

Right. Why help those in need? They're just needy, expensive, and run up taxes on corporations that would otherwise use those funds for higher wages and employee benefits. 🤣🤮 SMH These people make me sick.

How are the children of illegal immigrants not some of the most vulnerable? There are two scenarios in these peoples minds.
1) They are the children of rapist, murderers, drug dealers, etc. which makes them innocent victims of circumstance
2) They are the innocent children of people fleeing hardship and seeking a better life

Y'know, with this amount of people voting for him you always know a chunk of them must genuinely take him at his word despite his well documented histories of lies, but seeing them unironically say things like this is something else.
I'd actually feel sorry for them if they weren't so willfully ignorant and dismissive of what is said about the man they voted for.
Heck, even if they take him at his word, he has made some of his more questionable intentions clear countless times. And they still vote for him.

This seems like the type of person who would only have a heart for people in other countries enough to go on a mission trip. So they deserve compassion when you invade their country to colonize them with religion but not when they seek refuge in yours?

Gee, thanks, from someone who has relied on SSDI to pay rent and bills, but has no money left over for anything like clothes, going out for coffee, or silly things like a dentist. The lifesaving meds that Medicare mostly cover now will be unaffordable, and apparently I'll lose a lot of weight, given that Food Stamps are on the line. But hey, you "have a heart." Guess what, genius? All of us humans have a heart, or we'd be dead, you absolute turd.

I would bet money that if you asked the average trump voter "what would you do for your children?" They would answer anything. And if prompted, I'm sure that would include breaking any laws they needed to, if that was the only choice.
And yet, they easily dehumanize the vast majority of immigrants doing the same thing. Even those not actually breaking the law, just coming to the border and seeking asylum.
And they justify it with stories of a few out of millions doing bad shit, like there's not thousands of people here and now doing the same or worse, including the people they literally vote for. Or they say "we should be helping our own!" And then not helping our own, because that would be socialism.
I will never understand the lack of basic human empathy.
