Virginia Republican Candidate Jokes "Install Your Very Own Concentration Camp"

The following is from the Stafford County Democrats, about Republican/right-wingnut HD28 nominee Paul Milde joking about migrant children “separated from their parents and locked in cages like animals…warehoused in squalid conditions, sick and dying.” Yep, that’s right, this self-proclaimed, 100% “pro-life” Republican is not, actually, supportive of life as soon as it leaves the womb – let alone if the life we’re talking about happens to be an immigrant and/or a person of color. As the Stafford County Dems put it: “This man is unfit to be the next Delegate for the 28th House District. Join us in voting for Joshua Cole for Delegate this November.”

We have a humanitarian crisis on the Southern border and Paul Milde is making jokes. Migrant children, separated from their parents and locked in cages like animals, are being warehoused in squalid conditions, sick and dying, and Paul Milde is making jokes. Well, we’re not laughing. This man is unfit to be the next Delegate for the 28th House District. Join us in voting for Joshua Cole for Delegate this November.

and our veterans get nothing. The original page is called Uncle Sam's Misguided Children. Now I'm starting to wonder if it's a Russian troll site.

First Question: So if we as a Country can so easily erect tent cities for migrants who unlawfully entered our country why can't we do the same for our homeless Veterans and those without shelter?

Second Question: If our government can re open close down Military bases to house, feed, give medical aid etc to these so call migrants, who some later receive full benefits, two year compensations up to $3000 depending on the size of the family, free housing, free healthcare, all paid by the American "Citizens", why can't we do this for our own Homeless Veterans? Or Veterans in Need? Veterans who are fighting the VA for service connected medical issues our government is responsible for?

We will never support the idea of handouts but some have earned it and some have not. Our government, politicians, etc first and only priority is to take care of the American citizenry first! Not illegals.
