    The parents knew the children would be separated from them. They still went ahead with it.

    So you welcomed perverts and mass murderers like Kennedy and Bill and Wife

    But you protest against Donald ?

    Educate yourselves

    Who's the boardsie who welcomed Kennedy in the 60s?

    Those "parents" illegally brought their kids into the USA and put them in danger.


    And? Putting your child in a vulnerable position does not excuse the actions of the person who took advantage of them. If you want to criticise the parents for bringing their child along that's fine. But it in no way excuses the treatment Trumps administration subjected them to.

    Best you don't, if memory serves me correctly you got banned off a few of the pope pages because of your behaviour.

    I thought you played the ball not the man!

    Aren't you a goody two shoes. Getting banned off boards social issues threads on after hours is a badge of honour!

    You see moderation bans mean nothing when moderation is biased, as i've often pointed out. The abortion threads were a farce, anything to do with Catholicism etc. I'll stand over those comments all day.

    You'll be protected on here alright.

    More political nonsense put before reuniting the kids.


    '' your problem to reunite them''


    '' no it's your problem to reunite them''


    '' no no it's your problem''


    Seems they want to drag that story out so it's something to aim at Trump, using kids as a weapon to beat him. WTF
    No one is stopping those kids being reunited except the places that are holding them, they're passing the buck as to who needs to contact the parents so that they can be reunite with their kids.

    Unlucky...you missed "libtard" to claim this week's star prize.

    On topic: I wouldn't be against his visit as the position of American President does deserve a certain respect. Even if the current holder of that office doesn't treat the job with respect.

    Obama and Clinton were both good people who made some poor decisions at times. There are absolutely no redeeming qualities in Trump. He takes all actions based on greed and spite. He has no capacity for empathy.

    Poor decisions

    Such soft language

    Reality is you would be picking pieces of your family out of the rubble after orders were given

    But Donald is the bad man

    I'm no Trump fan, in fact I strongly dislike him. However, there's incredible hypocrisy in statements like this. Obama was responsible for the deaths of thousands of people. Make of that what you will, but don't brush it off as being some "poor decisions" while at the same time lambasting Trump. Complete cognitive dissonance.

    Trying to justify it because of what his actions are based on doesn't help - it's scant consolation for the families bombed to pieces under Obama across the Middle-East.

    I can really see the government telling Donald to p*ss off considering how much we rely on FDI. Even when he wasn't POTUS M Noonan was down in Shannon with the red carpet to welcome him. Trump was only visiting his golfcourse then.

    Hopefully he mentions us building a wall and letting the UK pay for it.

    We all know things about Donald but this is about him coming to Ireland not what he did or spoke about.

    He's hardly going to call into a cucks or feminists door and insult them is he ????

    Sorry, but what's a "cucks or feminists door"? Rhyming slang?

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Let's hope it's a quick stopover in Shannon, and a swing of a golf club in Doonbeg.

    Obama got a free run because of his skin colour, and the 2 guys who ran against him were very poor candidates.

    ISIS flourished under his watch. He and his wife were the founders of this group, in effect.

    He'll be brought to Dublin. A visit at the US embassy is traditional. Hopefully the car won't get stuck this time . Although the visit will not be on the scale of Obama.

    At no point did I justify their actions. I said they made poor decisions and I stand by that. I also said I think they were good people overall and I stand by that. In general I think their motivations were good but I don't give them a pass for that. In contrast Trump is despicable in every way and all his decisions reflect his horrible personality. There is no redeemable part of him and his decisions will affect a lot more people negatively in a lot more ways.

    The parents knew what would happen the children.


    Again, why does that matter? If a parent sells their child on the internet to a child abuser do you excuse the child abuser because "the parents knew what would happen"?

    Trump is welcome here far as I am concerned,no point alienating the US .. I have seen nothing in the reign of this president that would lead me to hate him ..seems an ok guy ..mudslinging is one thing but it does not stick to him ..My fear is that haters from all over europe will come here with their bs and trash the place in the name of hating trump...

    I'm off. Before i get into trouble:D

    My thoughts on Trump.. All US presidents tend to have blood on their hands from various conflicts the US is involved in. Trump probably less than any recent presidents.

    At the end of the day he'll get the red carpet etc. Money talks and the other walks. If the US president was Genghis Khan he'd get a warm welcome because of the state he leads.
