Trump Moves To Deport Sick Migrant Children From The US

Trump takes his cruelty to a new level by trying to deport sick immigrant children by taking away their medical deferment status.

According to The Boston Globe:
Step by malicious step, the Trump administration is turning the American immigration system into an apparatus of appalling, intentional cruelty.

The latest case in point is a relatively small program known as “medical deferred action,” in which immigrants without legal status who are suffering from serious medical conditions are granted a reprieve from deportation so that they can have access to much-needed medical treatment in the United States.

Trump halted the program this month, threatening to deport these patients, including children with leukemia, muscular dystrophy, or cystic fibrosis

It is already well known that it is Trump administration policy to abuse detained children through horrific treatment in detention centers, but even sick kids can’t escape the cruelty of Donald Trump.

The American people need to comprehend fully that they aren’t dealing with a bad president, but a bad human being who has the power of the presidency.

There is no need for this program to be brought to an end. Trump will literally be sending children and adults to their deaths. The point of this administration’s actions is to make coming to America such a horrible experience that they think it will deter others from trying to migrate to the country.

It hasn’t worked. It won’t work. It is an abominable public policy that goes bedrock American values. What Trump is doing in the name of our nation is a disgrace that must be stopped before he destroys everything that the United States stands for.
