What prompted a sudden @realDonaldTrump change of his unpopular @POTUS policy? Was it the outpouring of negative public opinion, a bluff went wrong, or another lie fact-checked, or all of the above? Trump breaks down and reverses himself by signing another executive order telling everyone to stop HIS family separation practice that blew up in his face.

What happens to the 2 thousand now separated now that he reversed his order to separate families at the border?
