So... you find it necessary to insult him (which the NY Times didn't), even when he takes measures to fix what you complain about. Says a lot about you. And your lack of virtue.
President Trump caved to enormous political pressure on Wednesday
He shows a "lack of virtue" by accurately quoting the article?

Originally posted by @tom-wolseyAccording to what you and the other right wing drones were saying yesterday, he's a lawbreaker now since you claimed the law requires the family separations. And the Donald agreed with you:

Trump and his top aides, led by Nielsen, have been saying that the law requires them to separate children from parents who were being prosecuted for crossing the border illegally.
Nielsen and Trump repeatedly tried to blame Democrats for the situation at the border, saying that nothing could be done without a legislative resolution.

I'm not sure why he should get extra credit for "fixing" a problem he alone created.

Originally posted by @deepthoughtSure, I'm sticking a bit of a thumb in the eyes of right wingers here who insisted the policy was legally required up until yesterday. They kinda don't like that. The title was easier and more fun to type than "Trump Reverses Family Separation Policy" though (which might not have fit).

if a drunkard takes a crap in the middle of the street i don't give him praise that after the entire world screamed at him to clean it up he actually does it.

Originally posted by @no1marauderThe fact that Trump had to go around our gridlocked Congress and write an executive order, demonstrates the legality of what was happening.

Did you get a load of those poor caged children, piled up like sardines sleeping on the floor at the Nogales facility? Oh wait, that was going on in 2014. No outrage from any of you.

Originally posted by @deepthoughtWell it could have been something like "Trump finally fixes problem" but instead, yes, it was worded with a negative connotation.

Originally posted by @tom-wolseyHow is that an "insult"? "Cave", in this sense, means "capitulate or submit under pressure" which is what Trump certainly did. The use by me and the headline is certainly accurate.
