Border plan just plain evil

To the editor:

Humpty Dumpty sat on a well. Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.

Humpty Dumpty wants to build a great wall, which will bring America to its knees with the failure to please the allies we joined with to defeat the dictators of the 20th century world, not to end up appeasing the despots of today — Russia, China and North Korea — which are sitting pretty on the other side of the Democratic wall waiting to catch our fall.

Some in the president’s cabinet are quoting the Bible to justify incarcerating children, some as young as babies in the arms of their mothers at Trump’s wall. The shining light on the hill is getting dimmer.

What is happening at the border is not only wrong, it is evil. Something unholy is hovering over the White House.

Paraphrasing Don McLean’s “American Pie” — I went to the border: I can’t remember if I cried, when I read about the children. Something touched me deep inside, the day America died.”
