It breaks my heart when I hear the stories about these kids.

That said, Bob is right. Is it even controversial to say there's a massive amount of shameful political rhetoric going around out there? I mean, that's usually the case, whatever is happening in the world. Each side is always watching for any kind of misstep by the other that can be exploited for political gain.

Remember when the whole country spent a long time taking about nothing but Clinton's affair? All over the news. We even impeached him! Shameful political maneuvering. Am I defending his affair by saying this? Obviously not. But the reason the country got worked up about it was not that it really mattered so much what he did, but that someone powerful had something to gain by igniting a political firestorm.

So yeah it plays really well to audiences, babies being torn from their mothers bosoms. And it's really good for Trump's opponents if you hear a lot about it. So you're going to hear a LOT about it.
