Do these families who are not citizens of the USA choose to try to enter the USA? And way to be a sensationalist by using terms like "cages".

The children are not choosing to do so in any meaningful sense, no. But anyway, most of the families are filing for asylum, which is legal. They aren't entering illegally; they are filing for asylum at the border. We're the ones choosing to cage them instead of treating them more humanely.

And it's not sensationalist to speak the truth. There are plenty of photos and videos. We are actually doing this.
