the media is falling all over themselves trying to give credit to Melania's comments which they indicate are a direct rebuke on Trump's immigration policy.
the problem is that there was never a statement of Melania actually rebuking much of anything.. She did say she hated to see families torn apart which is more than Trump would say but then went to say that she hoped both sides of the aisle would come together to fix this (read..build that stupid wall). This is like saying you like gorge on ice-cream and you also like to be skinny.
Trump is president, Sessions is the AG, the GOP controls both the Senate and the House and this is a Trump policy which Stephen Miller has already indicated is so harsh specifically to deter other border crossers. I am not sure what the correct fix is but I do know throwing kids into detention centers away from their families is NOT the solution..
but Melania will get credit for her compassion, her willingness to stand up and defend those who can't speak for themselves and to criticize her husband's policy.. sadly she didn't do any of that and knowing her role in the birther thing, I don't think she ever really will..
