Why Jayme Closs is no angel

Jayme Closs
In the early morning hours of Monday, 15 October 2018, in Barron, Wisconsin, 13 year old Jayme Closs was kidnapped by a man who forced his way into the family home and shot her mother and father dead. After this, she suffered 88 days of unspeakable brutality at the hands of the assailant before she was able to escape. The pain of losing both parents at the same time to brutal murders must have been incredible. The terror of being kidnapped by that same man must have been extreme. The endurance she showed in surviving the untold horrors of her 3 months of captivity was extraordinary. The courage she showed in rescuing herself was outstanding.

Trump and his Angel Families
In spite of all this, Jayme Closs is no angel in the eyes of US President Donald Trump because the criminal that did all this to Jayme Closs and her family was an American citizen, and Angel Families is a term used by Trump to describe relatives of victims killed by illegal immigrants. Trump doesn't really believe that the pain and injury of those that have lost family members to criminal acts is greater if those illegal acts were committed by someone whose presence in the US was also illegal. However, he does believe they are less noteworthy because if the murders were committed by a white American man, they are of no use to him in stoking the racism that is his hallmark issue and the way he hopes to survive the investigations into his own criminal behavior.
