Democrats' rush to blame Trump for kids in cages backfires

NY Post:
President Trump taunted Democrats on Tuesday for mistakenly sharing photos of immigrant children being held in cages at detention centers during the Obama administration, saying they were trying to make “us look bad.”

“Democrats mistakenly tweet 2014 pictures from Obama’s term showing children from the Border in steel cages. They thought it was recent pictures in order to make us look bad, but backfires,” he posted on Twitter.

He called on Democratic lawmakers to work with their Republican colleagues on building a wall and increasing security at the Mexican border.

“Dems must agree to Wall and new Border Protection for good of country … Bipartisan Bill!,” he said.

The photos of the youths lying on a mat inside a wire cage began appearing online over the weekend after reports said the federal government “lost track” of nearly 1,500 immigrant children at the end of 2017. ​

Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t
