No child died at the border for 10 years. Now 6 have. The Dems havent changed. Only the president and his minions. Grow up Bullitt.
Duck I am trying to engage you with facts cold hard facts not what the news media wants to paint. Currently a recent figure of 1 Million illegal immigrants that have already had their hearing and been denied are still at the border, they should have left but they haven't....I have to ask you Duck Why??? --- It's because it is commonly known that the U.S. does not expend very much energy deporting illegal immigrants once inside the US. (the golden ticket) ---That's why the #1 strategy, often at any risks and costs, is to get across the border because once there you are good. Than means they don't care they will do it by any method, by any route, by any lie, by any and all means necessary....to get across the border. Illegal immigrants and the world already know this. If you can get across the border your odds are very high that no one will ever come to look for you, even if you are denied entry and asylum end of story!!
I tried to find some good stats but hard to find since the liberal news does not want to report those, they only want to sensationalize the deaths. But it looks like deaths are down right now. Lower than even when Obama was President!! So holding them at the border is working no matter what you want to believe. Yes any death is horrible but again as long as you want to promise people crossing the border anything and everything once they get here you are not going to stop it.
Maybe you need to grow up and get yourself a good education and quit leaning on liberal talking points.
Migrant deaths along the Mexico–U.S. border occur hundreds of times a year because of those attempting to cross into the
United States from
Mexico illegally.
[1] The US Border Patrol reported 294 migrant deaths in the fiscal year 2017 (ending September 30, 2017), which was lower than in 2016 (322), and any year during the period 2003-2014. Exposure (including
heat stroke,
dehydration, and
hyperthermia) were the leading cause.

The group
Border Angels estimates that since 1994, about 10,000 people have died in their attempt to cross border.
[3] According to the
U.S. Customs and Border Protection, 7,216 people have died crossing the
U.S–Mexico borderbetween 1998 and 2017.
[4] In 2005, more than 500 died across the entire U.S.–Mexico border.
[5] The number of yearly border crossing deaths doubled from 1995 to 2005, before declining.
[6] The statistics reflect only known deaths and do not include those who have never been found.
