What is it with the need to blame anyone for the tragic death of these children? A viral infection can quickly become a fatal infection especially in a child. Influenza, Enterovirus, RSV all serious. It is flu season
AprilDRyan Yet it's his fault. we know he put the AJ up to ordering them to retain and split up family's who that looking for places to call home.
Trump and Nielsen need to be held accountable for these deaths! They are both responsible!
AprilDRyan Of course, he blames the Democrats! He always blames everyone except himself. MSNBC CNN TheDemocrats
AprilDRyan He may be *trying* to deflect blame. He's certainly not succeeding. Are your headline writers really this utterly incapable of getting it right?
This is shameful. This is clearly liberals deflecting the blame. If there was a wall these children would still be alive. So whose fault is it really?
AprilDRyan Whatever happened to Kristjen Neilson getting the boot?
It isn’t job of CBP and ICE to protect the lives of illegals. Their jobs are to protect legal American.
When Trump is rotting in hell, maybe then he'll finally accept some responsibility. But let's be honest, he will still blame someone else.
it makes as much sense to blame the Democrats as it does to blame the president when a child dies because his parents neglect him
Gee, do the neglectful parents get some blame? Who drags a kid through hellacious conditions in the first place?
Capt. Deflection 🤮
Parents fault. Noone else's
As he should
the parents are obviously culpable for not seeking aid while en-route to our border.... This is just a disgusting liberal media smear tactic....
Exactly how much did Pelosi pay for this DNC ad ? Asking for a friend SchumerPelosiShutdown
At this point your just purposely looking for the ratio
realDonaldTrump award for you Best 2nd Hitler ever award for 2018, maybe read the rest of what happened to the Nazis eh? oh wait maybe you cannot read, audio then, the library of congress has plenty of books
Does Trump really believe that it was the Democrats who made Fred Trump contact the doctor in Queens to get a letter excusing him from the military draft?
Does Trump honestly believe that the Democrats are to blame for his first two wives leaving him?
A phrase we often hear repeated from the White House, 'it's their/his/her fault!' 'The Democrats are to blame.' 'It's not my fault.' 'I didn't do it.' 'Not me.'
Isn’t that like saying if a kid is shot in school don’t blame the gunman or the gun, blame the policies that allo or require kids to be in school?
Who are you going to blame Trump 😂😂😂
These migrant invaders come with H1S1 and die at the doorstep of the border
Blame the parents and our weak enforcement of immigration laws.
Who else
Easy call for Trump....since it's true. Democrats have blood on their hands and will eventually be brought to justice. Openly defying Federal Law will not go unpunished.
Bad parents to blame
We're supposed to be responsible for everyone that border jumps and happens to have some unforeseen illness! Get real? is fake news
Trump blames Democrats for everything, because his ignorant base laps that up. They love having someone to blame and hate.
They were going to die wether in custody or not! Their parents put them thru a horrific journey because the incompetent Dems won't fix the enticing laws that are bringing illegals here! It's the parents fault, period!
Of course he does own it like you said you would
Disgusting
So, it’s our fault when we rendered care when they arrived sick? You idiots! They never would’ve tried the trek if they didn’t see the opening provided by the Dem resistance.
The two people depicted are responsible
... he should have added AP to the responsible people ...
Fact. The parents and the open boarders by the hypocrites in the dnc are totally to blame
Just perhaps they are to blame is the more accurate way to describe this.
Trump wouldn't take responsibility for a fart even if the evidence stained his shorts. realDonaldTrump
Is trump forcing the illegals to commit illegal acts? FAKENEWSALERT
Very accurate of him to say this
Ohhhh, time for the Liberal newspapers to start posting number of the 'poor childrens' deaths everyday, afterall, we have another Republican POTUS ... Oh, oh, oh, Let's blame realDonaldTrump !!!
One of the psychopaths features is also a tendency for away explanations and for outward projection. Projection means that own mistakes, unpleasant thoughts and own unreliability are attributed to others to prevent the psychopaths from being confronted with them.
This is asinine
POTUS has no blame. The children got sick and were given treatment. Other than the parents trekking them cross country, what else could've been done?
When words don't quite cut it, perhaps a visual.
Please stop your radical liberal bs! You are a news company to report facts!!!
No one believes any of this. Zero Tolerance immigration law is ridiculous. Putting babies in cages is pure evil.
There's nothing to deflect, the Trump administration doesn't have any responsibility, it's all on the person who brought the kids on the Dangerous journey here!
he says as a democrat im responsible for kids death - he is really a grotesque foul 2 legged cancer😊
Trump bears the stain of every death, every harm to each innocent on his dark slimy soul, as Herod did w the Murder of the Holy Innocents. & a special dark, painful inescapable place is ready for him in Gehenna. They are gleeful & laughing at the prospect of his arrival Eternity
His Administration isn't to blame, liars.
What good does blaming do? What about helping ?
Am thankful there were doctors on the U.S. side of the border to attempt to save the children's lives. Doing a bit of background on the stories really helped me to come to an informed decision.
Here we go again, it's Hillary's fault.
People can lay blame where they want, but surely must concede that using the deaths of children to push an agenda is truly disgusting. SHowing zero empathy while doing it, to top it off. Sadly, people support this shit
How sway? realDonaldTrump
All you dumb a$$ that think us the parents fault .wrong it's trump's. He created an illegal rules making it harder. Asylum is legal. You have to apply at the border. Theses children are indigenous to this continent. They belong here. They are welcome.
This land belong to the Indians/Mexicans/Myans/&c. The English invaded this land. Killed and enslaved the inhabitants. Forced immigration: 1) Enslaved a people from Africa as slaves and killed millions in the Middle Passage; 2) Criminals/insane from English and Irish prisons
As he should.
Liberalism is a mental disease
It’s the parents fault.
This seems to be a worse problem if migrants who come from countries that dont have the luxury of regular enoculations for conmon virues. We should screen them first to make sure they are not passing on viruses, they may not know themselves that they are sick. A simple swab.
It’s an arsehole.
Last time I checked they both died on his watch.
True Americans feel bad and know this is the wrong thing to do to those families. They blame Trump for these drspicable and cruel policies. Trump Cultists blame parents trying to survive by bringing their sons and daughters to the land of opportunity.
Because his administration wasn’t responsible for their deaths, the children’s parents are the ones to blame.
.TheDemocrats encourage these illegals - these are their voters.
They wouldn’t have be here if we had a wall
I distinctly remember President Trump announcing for months through the media, telling the migrants not to take the dangerous journey to the US border. I clearly remember the media insulting the president and defending the migrants' actions. So, who is really at fault here?
TrumpKillsChildren
No realDonaldTrump, you’re the one with blood on your hands. You sir, are complicit in the deaths of two innocent children. trump
Because of course he does
If they were home in Guatemala they wouldn’t be dead. Blame the parents.
realDonaldTrump blames everyone but himself. I guess there are no mirrors in the WhiteHouse
So it’s Trumps fault that their parents put those kids in harms way under impossible conditions just to break the law in the process.....? Please.....save your fake outrage and act like y’all did when all this happened under Obama.....
Of course he does. He blames everyone but himself. Rethuglicans control all branches of Government yet he blames Democrats. He’s a fuckinmoron.
He wouldn’t need to “deflect blame” if moronic fake news outlets like AP didn’t try to blame him for the actions of the children’s parents.
Deflects?!? No blame to the parents that didn’t provide food or water to their kids?!? If someone did this to their pet, the press would want them executed. Instead try to place blame on Trump for parental negligence. APravda
Lay the blame on parents of these kids for once. Not the country of invasion.
Not Trump’s FAULT Idiots!!
EEUU no es culpable ni responsable por la muerte de esos niños. Los culpables son los padres abusadores e irresponsables que sometieron esos niños al hambre y sed extrema en territorio desértico. Agrabado por la desnutrición y esfuerzo de una travesía por mas de 3,000 kms.
Trump is right on the money yet again
The United States is not guilty or responsible for the deaths of these children. The culprits are the abusive and irresponsible parents who subjected these children to extreme hunger and thirst in desert territory.
Democrats encouraged and invited them to risk their children's lives. Build the wall.
As he should. Blame the parents and Democrats
The President of the United States is UNFIT and UNABLE to perform his duties to the country as sworn to in his Oath on Inauguration Day. I call on Congress to remove him by Article 25 of the Constitution of the U.S. To not do so, is a criminal disservice to the constituency!!!!
The blame for the death of 2 Guatemalan children lies 100% on the parents who would bring children 1200 miles.
Yeah because they were already sick when they got here. Blame the parents.
So much for his recorded statement that he would own the shutdown trump has no backbone or moral conviction
Did Obama take any blame for the 18 migrants that died while in detention under his administration? Did the media imply that he do so? No.
It’s their parents fault pure & simple ‼️
WHY should he HAVE TO DEFLECT! It's has ZERO to do with us !! GET REAL !! FAKE NEWS
Because it’s not our fault
As he should. If this happened in our country who would be in jail? The parents!!!
Of course there is no blame for the administration who is upholding US Law. It's democrat border security views that could be blamed which intice the 1200 mile trek.
Trump is a mentally ill child, fundamentally incapable of taking responsibility for any of his disgusting actions and glaring failures.
The father traveled for weeks with a young boy with minimum care and safety trying to enter this country unlawfully. The border patrol did all they could. Immigration laws and court rulings are a magnet to the illegals. Congress needs to act now!! Pathetic, build the wall!!
Their parents are at fault for endangering their own children. BuildTheWallNow
There is plenty of blame to go around, especially the father who put his child in harm’s way. But to blame “the Democrats” for...all of immigration policy or something...is fucking moronic. Trump is not helping himself if he wants a wall.
They’re are holding up immigration reform & border security!!!!!!!!!! Got it AP
I distinctly remember Preaident Trump announcing for months through the media, telling the migrants not to take the dangerous journey to the US border. I clearly remember the media insulting the president and defending the migrants' actions. So, who is really at fault here?
Of course realdonaldtrump deflects blame. He’s never taken responsibility for anything in his life. realdonaldtrump YOU said Mexico would pay for the wall.
Bad parenting is not our government's fault...
SecNielsen has 'requested medical help from other government agencies, including the U.S. Coast Guard'. Did she forget that the Coast Guard is one of the organizations that currently has no money due to the realDonaldTrump Shutdown? DumpTrump TrumpShutdown
It’s Trump’s fault. All alone!
Yuup parents and traffickers
Fact check: True.
His statement: my dad killed me
the people to blame for the deaths of the children are the parents who put them in peril by traveling in inappropriate conditions to unknown situations, all in the winter flu season. period.
The facts lay blame on the adults who dragged these kids to our border in hopes of sympathy from our government.
To all those who want to blame the parents alone: what would you do if it was your child? What would you to to try and keep your child safe from what they are coming from? Would you walk 1000 miles to try and give your child a better life or would you just shrug and say whatever?
Pls release ALL US citizens who are currently jailed for what IllegalImmigration is allowed to do daily. Father denied child medical care.
The parents are to blame stupid people.
Where are the articles on the illegals who kill police?
He should blame the migrants parents for bringing their kids through harsh conditions to break the law.
How long will the GOP, Senate and Congress tolerate this shameless misrepresentation of the USA. Trump is a global embarrassment doing irreparable damage while nothing is being done. Why? As usual political and personal gain. Party over country. Shame on you all...
Not once did mention the condition of the children before they were taken into custody. They frame their article to seem like the children become ill and are neglected while in custody. Such sick, dishonest reporting in a vain effort to snub Trump. Disgusting.
Well if we had A WALL and no way for people to break the law and jump our boarders then they wouldnt make the trek! It's the Democrats fault, they dont care about these people. The Dems care about votes! They know they lost trust of most working Americans.
The parents who dragged those children through 2k miles of desert had the AP to deflect for them.
Rest In Peace
Truman the buck stops with me. Trump I have nothing to do with what happens in this country.
Parents are responsible!!!
And Nancy Pelosi deflects amy blame for the murders of U.S citizens at the hands of the illegal aliens she aids and abets. Why isn’t THAT one of your headlines?
What parent would expose their children to that trip? Not me!! No decent parent would take their children walking through 2 or 3 countries. No blame on US.
Shameful!!!
“Deflects”
If they can’t get in here, they can’t die here.
Why would it be America’s fault when a parent chooses to drag their child across earth on foot or whatever to another country
The parents dragged these kids into the caravan for 2000 miles. Let's look at them a little.
Everyone fails to remember that approximately 18 died during the Obama administration.
Thank you for a PROPER headline. Trump deflects all blame from himself. According to him, nothing is ever his fault.
My kid has influenza...what about me
Ask the parents who brought the kids on a thousand mile hike. It starts there not at our borders
The parents are to blame no one else
How is this not the Parents fault?
One of the saddest stories of the year. Our policies suddenly lack any humanity.
Imagine if the ap ran stories nonvstop about a police officer being killed by an illegal immigrant
Just perhaps “tries to deflect” is the more accurate way to describe this.
Blame their parents
Yea, the first kid arrived septic and the second kid was treated twice at a hospital. But let’s blame law enforcement. Idiots
Roll Tears, Roll! OUDNA 🏈
What a Lefist rag!
Trump HAS NEVER accepted responsibility for ANYTHING in his privileged, 'bone spur' ridden life, but it doesn't matter how hard the Liar in Chief tries to blame Democrats for everything from the TRUMP shutdown to the deaths of the innocent children who died under TRUMP'S watch.
