(61,704 posts)There are indications that Trump's business involves sex trafficking. Thousands of children have been separated from their parents at our southern border and the Trump administration says they don't know where they are. Same with thousands of women who seem to have disappeared while in our border custody.
Where are the women and children who were detained at our border, separated from their families, and held in cages in violation of international human rights agreements? Why are they being moved to secret locations at night?
Where are the women and children?

(2,698 posts)Paedophilia and forced prostitution are totally OK if Trump -- or any Republican, for that matter -- does it?
It's only bad if a Librul does it -- and if we can't find a Librul doing it we'll just make sh-t up and our people will believe it and be horrified by it just like it was real -- because if you believe something, it's automatic real, right?
And also don't forget that these are brown people we're talking about, right? So it doesn't matter what happens to them and besides they do it to their own because they're savages and muslims which is the same thing, right? Right?

(6,207 posts)The American people were outraged with Trump's decision, without consultation, to abandon you.
When the surviving Kurds are looking for answers for the betrayal ask here.

(9,426 posts)partners have brought shame on this country. Never has the US abandoned their allies like this. All for what? A gaudy Trump Tower? This is a national disgrace. Thanks Moscow Mitch and the rest of the traitors in the gop.

(6,601 posts)Just like it was Republicans who embraced the PNAC & lied about WMDs to start the Iraq war.
We need to make this point loud & clear.
It's not a matter of not being able to trust America, it's a matter of not being able to trust Republicans, & the whole world should realize that.

(5,813 posts)Weve seen this show before, just in a different place. tRump thinks this will resonate with his base and for some, it will. But on the whole, most of us (Americans in general) dont like seeing dead children. Or children separated from their parents. Because many of us have children and we have a heart. It hurts to see children harmed or mistreated. Yes, there are hard hearted among us, but for most, it wont be a winning strategy to show dead babies or shattered families.
tRump has no heart, no soul, no conscience. No matter who gets hurt, killed or maimed, hes good with it as long as he thinks it will endear him to his base or seal his place in history. He sickens me and should sicken anyone who even hears his name. From henceforth, he should live in infamy like Hitler and others of that ilk. And no, I dont think that is hyperbolic, because if he could operate on the scale of Hitler, he would. And THAT should scare the sh*t out of all of us.
