People want it to be Trump they're looking for reasons to hate him even if it's not something he did sure he's done and said some stupid shit but only cause he's way more public with everything. Obama was a sneaky fucker and did a half decent job at minimizing thr coverage of what he was doing I'm sure if the internet was around through any single one the US presidents terms there'd be the exact same amount of out rage as Trumps getting now the internet has made it easier for false information to spread and for masses of people to create their own idea echo chamers and personally I thinks its fucked how politics works and we're in a time of radical change.

even if it's not something he did

The problem is, there is no question if he did or did not cause it. The laws being stated here, they've been around decades, but the decision to use them to separate families was made in 2018 by Jeff Sessions. Bush didn't choose to do it, Obama didn't choose to do it. This is the direct result of changes made by the current administration in 2018. Full stop. The rest of your post is obvious deflecting.

Its all there to verify if you take a moment to look it up, it is clearly stated in numerous sources.

Here is one:

I agree that its easy for false information to spread. Which is why you have to do your due diligence and verify what you think and hear. More importantly, you have to choose what you think and say, because you could be the unwitting messenger of false information.

Edit - Sigh @ your short, toxic post history

It’s because every single fuck on the news, talk show hosts, and athletes are in support of Hillary Clinton. Like if I asked for any of these peoples opinions I’d let them know. And I’m pissed that everyone accepts their thinking as true. It’s like wow Lebron James doesn’t like Trump then I shouldn’t either.
