Trump blames Democrats for refusing to compromise their open borders policy leading to more illegal immigrants

Washington Post:
Trump blames Democrats for separating migrant families at the border, reigniting political uproar over immigration

Despite the president’s misleading tweet, there is no law mandating the separation of children and parents detained at the border — only the policies of his own administration.

Trump has been seeking an immigration reform package that would include a border wall and more people to help control the border and deter illegal immigration. 

Because the Democrats think illegal immigrants are future Democrat dependency prospects they oppose the border restrictions leading the administration to try to deter illegal immigration by other means including separation of families.

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
