Who is to blame?

One thing I left out was the part where I tried to explain that if Trump had an actual plan and then provided the appropriate funds and staffing this would be an easier problem to solve.

But since his plan seemed to be "take their kids...that'll scare 'em into not coming" it looks bad.  And the fact they had to basically scrap that "plan because they didn't have the jail space or system in place to handle the number of new cases they created just shows how poorly thought out and bad it was.

So now he has a bad plan that failed AND he looks awful and racist.

I'm not against border control...I'm against someone trying to do bad things without thinking.

Yeah I'm not basing this on Trump and his whims of the day.  We need someone, or a group or Congress to make it so that coming here illegally isn't the first option.  If I knew that our borders would be mostly controlled because people no longer needed to sneak in then I'd be fine granting people already here legal status after a background check.   

Now seeing as I don't know how the  immigration process works, I could be way off base, and making it easier to come here and allowing a lot more people to come here may be way easier said than done.
