Remember to vote this autumn.

In the last week, the pro-family Trump administration failed to reunite children it had forcibly taken from their parents’ arms at the U.S. border; the Nazis did this, as did the Soviets in the Stalin era when they created “children of the Gulag.”

The Trump administration advocated in Geneva, Switzerland, not to support an international declaration on the merits of breastfeeding for the good health of babies, but rather to support multinational corporations that sell infant formula.

The Trump administration imposed tariffs on Chinese goods, but not on Ivanka Trump’s imports from China; Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner increased their wealth and income by millions of dollars while serving citizens in the White House.

Ivanka Trump has praised her father’s efforts to reunite children with parents, but failed to note that he separated them in the first place.

The White House endorsed House efforts to endanger millions of children already in poverty by cutting food support programs; at least one in six American children goes to school and to bed hungry.

Donald Trump played havoc with health care by telling his administration not to make payments to health insurers. He has insurance, by the way.

And, on the international scene, North Korea disavowed Trump’s proclaimed agreement to “denuclearize.”

Now, Trump is on the way to Helsinki to give away what to Vladimir Putin?
