Face it, folks, he's God

President Donald Trump says there’s only one person in charge of his immigration policy: Him. Asked by reporters Wednesday whether he had considered tapping his influential aide, Stephen Miller, to lead the Department of Homeland Security given Miller’s focus on the issue, Trump was ready with praise — but not a promotion. “Stephen is an excellent guy. He’s wonderful person… He’s a brilliant man,” Trump said as he departed for Texas. But “frankly, there’s only one person that’s running it,” Trump said. “You know who that is?"

Is the question, who's running it? Or is the question, who is he going to say is running it? Because no one knows the answer to the first question, and everyone knows the answer to the second.

"It’s me.”

Of course it is, sir.

Asked whether Trump was considering nominating McAleenan as his permanent secretary, Trump said “could happen.”

“We have others, but right now he’s the man,” said Trump.

Last summer the administration separated more than 2,500 children from their families before international outrage forced Trump to halt the practice and a judge ordered them reunited.

People familiar with immigration discussions within the administration said family separation was one of several ideas Trump had revived in recent weeks as he and his aides try to tackle the problem of an ever-growing number of Central American families crossing into the U.S.

“We’re not looking to do that,” Trump told reporters on Tuesday before meeting with Egypt’s president at the White House. But he also noted: “Once you don’t have it, that’s why you see many more people coming. They’re coming like it’s a picnic, because let’s go to Disneyland.”

Yes, that's exactly why they're coming. You disgusting prick.

The White House also was weighing a tougher standard to evaluate initial asylum claims, proposing a “binary choice” that would force migrant families to choose between remaining with their children in detention until their immigration cases were decided or sending their children to government shelters while the parents remained in detention.

The administration also is considering clamping down on remittance payments that Mexican nationals send to their families, the official said.

Sen. John Kennedy, R-La., said there was a serious problem going on between the White House and Homeland Security.

“If everybody’s sitting around waiting for a shiny new wonder pony to ride in and solve it, we’re going to be waiting a long time,” he said.

Who needs a wonder pony when you've got a horse's ass?

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.

P.S. What does this sentence mean?

Top Republicans in Congress also expressed concern over vacancies at Homeland Security and cautioned Trump to heed off more churn after Nielsen’s resignation.
