随着美国共和党和民主党这两大政党准备11月的国会中期选举，过去的一星期对川普总统的白宫可能具有重要意义。
川普总统决定改变把在美国南部边境抓获的非法移民中的儿童与家人分开的政策。这一政策此前引起的政治风暴给民主党人带来激情，同时也引发了一些共和党人的警觉。现在看来，移民问题至少可能会成为11月中期选举中的重要问题。
川普总统星期三在明尼苏达州一个政治集会上斗志昂扬，誓言要在国会中期选举中把移民作为一个中心问题。他说：“如果你们希望创建一个人道、合法的移民体制，就必须让民主党人下岗，选举共和党人，才能让我们有牢固的边界。”
在那数小时前，川普总统在白宫签署政令，改变了把非法移民中儿童与父母分开的政策。
川普总统决定改变这一政策前，美国很多地方发出强烈不满的声音，在亚利桑纳、德克萨斯、宾夕法尼亚和麻萨诸塞等州还发生了抗议活动。
This past week could turn out to be pivotal for the Trump White House as both major parties get ready for midterm congressional elections in November.
President Donald Trump's decision to reverse a policy of separating families coming across the U.S. southern border came in the wake of a political firestorm that fired up opposition Democrats and alarmed even some Republicans. At the very least, it likely set the stage for immigration to be a key issue in November.
Trump was in combat mode Wednesday during a political rally in Duluth, Minnesota, where he vowed to make immigration a central focus in the upcoming congressional campaign.
“If you want to create a humane, lawful system of immigration then you need to retire the Democrats and elect Republicans to finally secure our borders，”Trump said.
Just hours earlier, the president reversed his controversial policy of separating children from their parents by signing an executive order in the White House.
Trump decided to back away from the controversial policy of separating families after an outcry from around the country that included protests in several states including Arizona, Texas, Pennsylvania and Massachusetts.
