Hahahahah.
Now Trump is thinking about nominating one of the architects of the family separation plan and the article (linked below) includes this about the potential candidate, Wolf:
"As far back as December 2017, when Wolf was acting chief of staff to Nielsen, he sent a list of 16 options to curb the number of undocumented immigrants to Gene Hamilton, counselor to then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions, for review.
Number two on the list: "Separate family units."
"Announce that DHS is considering separating family units, placing the adults in detention and placing minors under the age of 18 in the custody of HHS as unaccompanied alien children," Wolf wrote, referring to the Department of Health and Human Services, the agency that would later be called on to shelter more than 2,800 children separated from their parents in 2018.
note the words "announce" and "considering"
"deterrent"
:-)
