It's a cartoon that lacks taste for sure, but I would choose people getting upset at a cartoon over another immigrant dying in an interment camp

Well, that migrant and his daughter didn't die in a camp. It was a tragic death... but no one forced him into the river with his child. He made the decision to get into the water knowing the risk. And now his wife is left a widow with a dead daughter. They interviewed his mother in his hometown, he left for economic reasons and made that choice knowing how difficult it is entering the USA illegally. I feel sympathy for him, but most of my sympathy is for the little girl who had no choice but to trust her father's judgement. And here's a cartoon of Trump, about to step over their dead bodies. Trump, as odious a creature as he is, had no hand in the death of that father and child.
