Yes yes. It is very sad to see some on here ponder all the political implications while a child is dead.
Political implication? You betcha...the implications are political.

The father and daughter lie face down in the muddy water along the banks of the Rio Grande, her tiny head tucked inside his T-shirt, an arm draped over his neck.
The portrait of desperation was captured on Monday by the journalist Julia Le Duc, in the hours after Óscar Alberto Martínez Ramírez died with his 23-month-old daughter, Valeria, as they tried to cross from Mexico to the United States.

I’m going to blame it on Obama.
The young family from El Salvador — Mr. Martínez, 25, Valeria and her mother, Tania Vanessa Ávalos — arrived last weekend in the border city of Matamoros, Mexico, hoping to apply for asylum in the United States.
But the international bridge was closed until Monday, officials told them, and as they walked along the banks of the river, the water appeared manageable....
It is very unfortunate that this happens,” President Andrés Manuel López Obrador of Mexico said at a news conference on Tuesday. But as more migrants were being turned away by the United States, he said, “there are people who lose their lives in the desert or crossing the Rio Grande.”
Biden Invites Tidal Wave of Illegals into the U.S.
Welcome to the business boom for smugglers of illegal migrant children.
HUMAN TRAFFICKING: Cartels are Selling Kids for $3,200 a Head at Joe Biden’s Open Border with Mexico (VIDEO)
The cartels will literally tell these people, ‘If you have a minor with you we’ll give you a lower price of $3,200. We’ll give you safe passage.’ On top of child smuggling, “we have all these pedophiles, rapists, and kidnappers being released into the United States.”
Rep. John Katko: People on the Terror Watch List Caught Coming Across the Border in Last Few Days
“People they've caught in the last few days over there in sector three or monument three have been on the terror watch list. Individuals that they have on the watch list for terrorism are now starting to exploit the southern border," said Rep. John Katko (R-N.Y.), who serves on the Homeland Security Committee.
"We need to wake up," he said.
Katko served as a federal crime prosecutor in the 90s and was charged with going at the drug cartels.
“I had a fundamental understanding then, and I do now that the cartels know when to exploit that southern border, and they are doing it now masterfully. They are doing it, because President Biden rolled back a lot of the previous administrative orders that were working,” he said.
Child Sex Trafficking: Brutal Reality of Biden's Border Policies Explained By Texas Officials
For weeks we've heard the Biden Administration describe their immigration and border security policies as "humane." But today Texas officials, including Child Sex Trafficking Team Director Andrea Sparks, detailed the inhumanity of Biden's policies and horrific details about how unaccompanied minors are exploited.
"We are very concerned at the child sex trafficking team about the youth and the children who are coming across the border. They are in a perfect storm of vulnerability," Sparks said. "They are scared. They are confused and they are very likely to end up in the hands of an exploiter from what we know about human trafficking and how it works."

Is that your answer to the 9 year old Mexican child from the OP, who also died trying to cross the Rio Grande?
She should have been smarter?

tRump threatened migrants, took their kids way from them, put them in jail and gave their kids away, lost them or kept them in unsafe and unsanitary conditions for months. Yet, they still came, and many of them still died, trying to apply for asylum.
Desperate people do desperate things.

First, you do what Biden is doing. You send people down to see what the heck is happening that people are fleeing there own Country.
Second, you do what Biden is doing. You try and create facilities (that Trump dismantled) so you can handle these surges. Which by the way happened under all previous Presidents including Trump.
Third, you do what Biden did. Pass it off to Harris and let her worry about getting it together with people who understand the problem.
Fourth, YOU NEED TO SECURE THE BORDER. And that DOESN'T mean a 2000 mile wall that EVERYONE knows will be scaled or cut or tunneled under. It means more boarder patrol officers, electronic monitoring, drones, and YES some wall.
Fifth, fine the living daylights out of any business or person that hires an illegal without proper paperwork.
Sixth, fine any landlord who rents to an illegal.
Seventh, get CONGRESS to do their JOBS, and finally pass legislation to correct the problem of immigration. I personally don't care if you kick all illegals out, or keep all of them. But it's been decades, can we do something? We're the United States of America for God's sake.
