Andrew Sullivan on separation

Children see their mom or dad suddenly subjected to force, shoved out of cars, handcuffed and then simply spirited away.  No child should ever be subjected to this, period.  The sheer trauma it will generate can last a lifetime.  Yes, these are noncitizens.  Yes, many have broken the law.  But they are also children.  Every day we numb ourselves to these core violations of decency, America dies a little. 

When challenged on this, of course, tRUMP simply lied and insisted that the Democrats came up with this "horrible law."  Has nothing to do with what his own ICE is doing, he tells us.  Nothing.

The think about this despicable man is that he doesn't even have the courage to own his cruelty.
