Trump on Meet the Press Yesterday:

KRISTEN WELKER: “Let me ask you about another group of people, the estimated 4 million families in America who have mixed immigration status. So I’m talking about parents who might be here illegally but the kids are here legally. Your Border Czar Tom Homan said they can be deported together. Is that the plan?"

”TRUMP: “Well, that way you keep the — well, I don’t want to be breaking up families, so the only way you don’t break up the family is you keep them together and you have to send them all back.

WELKER: “Even kids who are here legally?”

”TRUMP: “Well, what you’ve got to do if they want to stay with their father — look, we have to have rules and regulations. You can always find something out like, you know, ‘This doesn’t work. That doesn’t work.’ I’ll tell you what’s going to be horrible, when we take a wonderful young woman who’s with a criminal. And they show the woman, and she could stay by the law, but they show the woman being taken out. Or they want her out and your cameras are focused on her as she’s crying as she’s being taken out of our country. And then the public turns against us. But we have to do our job.”

(I bolded "they" because I thought it was curious that he's not saying MY or OUR policy but 3rd person amorphous "they". You don't think it's because he wants to deny responsibility for his own actions do you?

I have introduced several girlfriends to my parents and siblings. Eventually, I would prepare them with this warning: "After you meet my parents, as we are walking away, you'll lean over in my direction and whisper, 'You were adopted, weren't you?'"

If you are just dating casually, meeting parents is not important, but if you are dating to find a long term, monogamous partner, meeting each other's family is essential. So. . . at what point do you ask if he/she would like to meet your parents?
