But I doubt it will have any effect on the blighted, damned soul of any member of the Trump regime. "Terrified, crying Latino children? Awesome!"

And that was only halfway through that recording...

This is the most ashamed I have ever felt to be an American, this moment in history, today.
I cannot imagine the kind of person who would work in a facility like that and then go home to their families at the end of the day like nothing happened...

"Hi hon'...how was your day?"

"Well those damn kids were still screaming and crying for their mommy or daddy all damn day..."

"Whaaaaaa???? Where the FUCK do you work now? I thought you were a government employee, not some sick racist piece of shit concentration camp guard...get the fuck out of my sight before I have to scream or collapse your skull with a frying pan...I don't want you to touch me or even brush against my skin ever again you twisted bastard...you sold your soul and humanity for a lousy job and poor wages? To become this? You disgust me."

of enforcing this cruel policy - tearing little kids away from their parents and putting them in cages with no one to even comfort them - and then go home to their own families as if what they were doing was normal and OK.

"How was work today, dear?"

"Oh, you know. Same old, same old, the usual rat race of taking screaming kids away from their mothers and locking them in cages. It's damned noisy, but heck, it's a living. What's for dinner?"

But then, Hitler couldn't have been Hitler without the help of a whole lot of low-level functionaries to do his dirty work, either. You just wonder how someone's soul can become so blighted that they can do such things day after day.

Democrats don't need another reminder of the horrors Trump is proudly engaged in, and Republicans don't care.
