She didn’t overstay as far as I know, but she did enter on a tourist visa with the explicit intention of working as a model.

Child Services takes children out of abusive and other dangerous situations for their safety.

OK, sure. So your hatred for immigrants then comes from ...?

found the nazi.

I’d rather they didn’t steal anybody’s kids for any reason ffs. It’s fucking immoral.

ICE isn’t taking away European immigrant kids.

Only if we make it retroactive to the point where your ancestors came to the US, sunshine.

Her grandmother is a mule?

Ah, but you see, one group gets the Border Patrol and ICE relentlessly hounding them. Melania gets flown around the globe on the taxpayer dime with a Secret Service escort.

The thing is, there are no ideas to exchange here on this one. You’re not debating the immigration issue. You’re not arguing the subtleties of international migration. This is about one thing only. Should a child be taken from her guardians as a deterrent to other asylum seekers?

Thanks for letting me know.

You keep saying that, but actually it’s exactly the sort of labor we need based on actual data. Give them VISAs and pay them a fair wage is fine by me. The raising wages argument is fine, but that’s sort of a bigger problem. If lack of labor alone would raise those wages, it would have already. Again. Read.

Good point. When are we deporting Melania Trump for visa fraud, her anchor baby, and her chain migrant parents without any skills again? Oh wait, they’re white. Totally different scenario. Got it.

And literally not a scenario that will happen with these asylum seekers. Duh.

If this is the guy, I hope they lock him up and he never sees light of day again. I’d even say we might warm up the electric chair for him.

Can we just accept these 7,000 and put a moratorium on 7,000 from other regions?

The caravan is months away if it makes it to the US at all.

It means your opinions are so shitty that we can immediately identify that we don’t like you and don’t want you here.

This is a great example of the modern public square, where everyone basically ignores your shitty ideas and tells you to fuck off. Maybe you shouldn’t be in public?

Or, you know, they could have kept her with her family. Detained, but not alone. That’s how non-assholes would do it as far as I know.
