Trumperie

Our President wants us to see
A Justice as mean as can be
Pack tots in cages
Deny their mom wages
And tell them they'll never be free

One of the 54 infants re-united with its mother was jerked from his mother's breast at 11-months, then caged for 85-days. His mother said he was covered in dirt and lice, and she doubted he had one single bath during those 85-days. 48-children can not be restored to their parents because Immigration lost/misfiled parental information. Proud to be American? Not I!
