Trump a 鈥渉umanitarian and security crisis at our Southern border.鈥�

But we know the .

It鈥檚 a direct result of the president鈥檚 relentless , his administration鈥檚 heartless policy of , and its on the number of people who can be processed at ports of entry.

It鈥檚 a result of the president鈥檚 well-documented preference for over the facts.

Just ask . Her daughter, Mollie, 20, was murdered this past summer, and an undocumented immigrant has been charged.

鈥淭rump tried to make political hay out of Mollie鈥檚 death: On the day her body was found, he issued a statement containing some of the same聽聽that he repeated during his primetime address Tuesday night.

In fact, Trump did make political hay out of Mollie鈥檚 death: On the day her body was found, he issued a statement containing some of the same that he repeated during his primetime address Tuesday night.

Mollie鈥檚 parents, Laura and Rob, found his, as Terrence McCoy describes for The Washington Post:

He鈥檇 never called Laura, knew little about her daughter, but had no problem, Laura thought, using Mollie鈥檚 death to try to end immigration policies he now referred to as 鈥減athetic.鈥�

Laura hated the sound of Mollie鈥檚 name coming from his mouth. His words were the opposite of who Mollie was, advancing a 鈥渃ause she vehemently opposed,鈥� as her father, Rob Tibbetts, who鈥檚 separated from Laura, wrote in a newspaper column soon after her funeral.

The family鈥檚 dissent didn鈥檛 stop with rejecting Trump鈥檚 comments about their daughter.

Laura Calderwood is living her rebuttal: She has taken in a teen named Ulises. He is the son of two immigrants who were forced to flee the community as a direct result of Mollie鈥檚 death, when an anti-immigrant backlash drove out many who worked at the same farm as Mollie鈥檚 alleged killer.

Ulises, a friend of Mollie鈥檚 younger brother, Scott, wanted to finish his high school education, but when his parents decided they had to leave the community, he had nowhere to go. So Laura took him in 鈥斅爐he son of farmworkers who had worked alongside the man who allegedly killed her daughter. Or: the friend of her youngest son, a boy who had grieved along with the family when Mollie was killed. A member of their community, no matter his parents鈥� immigration status.

Laura and her family are an example of how to address the very real immigration crisis that the Trump administration鈥檚 policies and rhetoric have created.聽

The nation is living through 鈥渁n elemental battle over who gets to be an American,鈥� as McCoy writes for The Washington Post. He asks:

Should any immigrant 鈥� regardless of race, religion, nationality or circumstance 鈥� have that chance? Or should it be reserved for the few who might more quickly assimilate into the American majority?

Ask Laura Calderwood.
