they shut down a monitored release program that had like 99% of asylum applicants showing up in court.

And that was a dick move. However, they believed they were still required to release children, hence the eff up.

there were still required to release the children.  they got that part right.

they were not required to separate them from their families, put the children in hellish kinderprisons, not maintain records, haphazardly separately deport sometimes the adult and sometimes the child and end up effectively orphaning hundreds of children.  hence the "eff up".

The lawsuits regarding conditions at detention facilities for Unaccompanied Alien Children predate the policy implemented last summer. I thought we were discussing the "family separation policy." Look, you and I are largely on the same page when it comes to this. But the blame doesn't fall solely at Trump's feet. If anything, Trump scorn has finally caused people to pay attention to what's going on at the border. Even so, it's a very complicated situation with tons of competing interests involved. It's very easy to moralize about it. Much harder, however, to actually manage a process that will be acceptable to a majority of Americans. It's a Herculean task we have at the Southern border. We need more of everything: immigration judges, lawyers, acceptable detention centers, etc.

I think it’s pretty fair in this circumstance to consider that Trump’s administration openly supported separating children from their parents as a deterrent to crossing the border. I’m not aware that any other administration took that stance even if it occasionally happened before.
