    He won’t stop because the cruelty is the point

      That’s disingenuous.

      The point is to seem like he’s got a plan for the migrant crisis by bussing them out of state.

      And if he sends them to Blue states where services are better for undocumented migrants, isn’t that better for the individuals? Or would they really be better off in Texas?

      Regardless, my point is, if you don’t try to understand why your political opponent is doing something, you’ll never be able to fix anything.

        this is disingenuous.

        if abbot wanted to reduce the suffering of migrants he would coordinate with sanctuary cities to better allocate resources.

        suffering is the goal.

        Yes, his plan is to be cruel.

        Hitler had a plan to solve the financial crisis by oppressing jews. Is it disingenuous to say the cruelty was the point? Should we actually be talking about Hitler’s terrible economic ideas?

          To be fair, it WAS a pretty terrible long term economic plan to attempt to systematically murder huge swaths of your citizenry.

          It is just that the moral, ethical, humane, etc horrors of that direction are much more important.

        I agree, but there’s not much more “understanding” necessary when we’re dealing with child death. If nothing gets fixed after this, then what’s left to try to understand?
