Trump's next rally:
"I can do better!"
Crazy thought, but maybe it's not the President in charge. Maybe it's the record high heat and the deplorable conditions of confinement.
Maybe we shouldn't be holding these people in concentration camps to begin with.
Maybe the president should have tackled the bad conditions in ICE detainment like he promised? He promised a more fair and humane system after Trump's abuses of detainees and instead he's treated Trump's conditions as a record to beat.

Sounds like pie-in-the-sky leftist agitprop to me.

Everyone knows that a Democratic President doesn't have the same authority as a Republican President.
So fun fact. On my phone I have you tagged as sarcastic. But on my computer I haven't figured out how to tag people yet.
But yes.
ICE is controlled by the department of Homeland Security, which is under the executive branch. As we remember from civics class, the president is directly responsible for the executive branch. The president is responsible for the atrocities at the border.
Are you telling me that the current President - Joe Biden - is responsible for a rising tide of migrants dying from heat exposure in ICE detainment centers?
Yes. Who else?
Presumably the head of Homeland Security, Alejandro Mayorkas
Biden nominated him...
Biden placed Mayorkas in that position, and is his boss.
