Barack Obama and Bill Clinton led the liberal charge against Donald Trump’s immigration policies.
The former Democrat Presidents slammed Trump on social media for ‘inhumane’ policies at the border.
Trump didn’t sit back and just scored this amazing revenge against Clinton and Obama.
Democrats and the media colluded on a political hit job against Trump’s zero-tolerance policy to secure the southern border.
Because of the 1997 Flores consent decree, the government can only hold illegal alien children for 20 days.
So when the Trump administration enforced American immigration law, their hands were tied.
Liberals – led by Obama, Clinton, and the media – began a smear campaign to manufacture a crisis built on lies that Trump was running a concentration camp where children are ripped from their parent’s arms.
The President ended up signing an executive order halting the family separation policy – that was mandated by law, but that was not good enough for the left.
Journalists and elected officials raged that Trump did not end the zero-tolerance policy that treated entering the country illegally as the crime that it is.
Obama and Clinton set the tone for these temper tantrums with the social media criticism.
Obama wrote:
“Today is World Refugee Day.
If you’ve been fortunate enough to have been born in America, imagine for a moment if circumstance had placed you somewhere else. Imagine if you’d been born in a country where you grew up fearing for your life, and eventually the lives of your children. A place where you finally found yourself so desperate to flee persecution, violence, and suffering that you’d be willing to travel thousands of miles under cover of darkness, enduring dangerous conditions, propelled forward by that very human impulse to create for our kids a better life.
That’s the reality for so many of the families whose plights we see and heart-rending cries we hear. And to watch those families broken apart in real time puts to us a very simple question: are we a nation that accepts the cruelty of ripping children from their parents’ arms, or are we a nation that values families, and works to keep them together? Do we look away, or do we choose to see something of ourselves and our children?
Our ability to imagine ourselves in the shoes of others, to say “there but for the grace of God go I,” is part of what makes us human. And to find a way to welcome the refugee and the immigrant – to be big enough and wise enough to uphold our laws and honor our values at the same time – is part of what makes us American. After all, almost all of us were strangers once, too. Whether our families crossed the Atlantic, the Pacific, or the Rio Grande, we’re only here because this country welcomed them in, and taught them that to be an American is about something more than what we look like, how our last names sound, or the way we worship. To be an American is to have a shared commitment to an ideal – that all of us are created equal, and all of us deserve the chance to become something better.
That’s the legacy our parents and grandparents and generations before created for us, and it’s something we have to protect for the generations to come. But we have to do more than say “this isn’t who we are.” We have to prove it – through our policies, our laws, our actions, and our votes.
Clinton also criticized Trump with an outrageous attack on Father’s Day tweeting out
“On this Father’s Day I’m thinking of the thousands of children separated from their parents at the border. These children should not be a negotiating tool. And reuniting them with their families would reaffirm America’s belief in & support for all parents who love their children.”
But it was Trump who got the last laugh.
The President tweeted out a hilarious video that showed Obama, Clinton and other Democrats – including Hillary Clinton – echoing Trump’s sentiments that illegal aliens cannot sneak into the country and use children as a human shield to gain amnesty.
Trump included the message “Don’t worry, the Republicans, and your President, will fix it!”
