    Yes, but this particular idea is intentionally letting children starve. Would you really want to associate yourself with a group that wanted to do that if you were against it?

    It’s like saying, “I’m on their side, but I don’t agree with their ‘kill the asylum seekers’ policy.” (I assume that will be a policy of theirs eventually.) How morally repugnant does a group have to get before you disassociate yourself with them?

      It already is policy for some of them, see Abbott’s death trap along the Rio Grande or DeSantis wanting to station his state guard on major crossings to shoot undocumented migrants.
