Kasich: Treatment of children at border a 'stain' on US
2019-06-30
[The Hill] Former Ohio Gov. John
"Son of a Postal Worker”
Kasich (R) slammed the Trump administration late Friday over its detainment of child migrants near the southern border, calling it "an unspeakable disgrace and a stain on this nation."

"Watching and reading reports about the gross neglect and mistreatment we're inflicting on kids is appalling," Kasich wrote in a commentary for CNN. "I ask myself, ’Can this be America? Is this the way we in this country treat any human being, let alone the youngest, most fragile and most innocent among us?’"

"But it's true," he added. "What we're seeing now is undeniably un-American, inhumane and shameful."

Kasich, a frequent Trump critic, voiced concern about the migrant family separations occurring at the U.S.-Mexico border, writing that whether the separations are taking place because of "cruel intent, scandalous neglect or a lack of funding," he "care[s] more about how we can help these children."

#7  Interesting that a "republican' is writing commentary for CNN. Fox News has enough Trump haters that he could have gotten published there.

#4  What is the government supposed to do? The adults need to be detained. The children cannot be detained in the adult centers where the "parents" are.

#3  The treatment of American citizenship is a stain on the politics of America that too long ago embraced 'citizen of the world' status but carries their programs out upon the back of every sovereign taxpayer.
