At last week’s marathon press conference, Donald Trump surprised conservatives and liberals alike with an answer about illegal immigration.
When asked how he planned to proceed with DACA — the program that provides legal status to minors who were brought into the country illegally — the president said: “To me, it’s one of the most difficult subjects I have because you have these incredible kids — in many cases, not in all cases. In some of the cases, they’re having DACA and they’re gang members and they’re drug members, too. But you have some absolutely incredible kids — I would say mostly — they were brought in here in such a way. It’s a very, very tough subject.” Ultimately, he said he would deal with their situation “with heart.”
Despite the fairly moderate answer, liberals quickly seized onto Trump’s use of the word “gang members” and ignored the fact that he said most of the kids were “absolutely incredible.”
Read about how members of the Hispanic Caucus used the quote to attack Trump and ICE on the next page:
Has anyone noticed that we NOW have a Congressional Black Caucus, NOW a Congressional Hispanic Caucus…when are we going to have a Congressional WHITE Caucus? Equality under the law?
And each of these factions stands in opposition
they hear only what they want to hear
If the people in the community you represent are afraid to leave their homes does that mean they are here illegally and have to hide from ICE?
Have white congressmen requested this and been denied? Call your congressman and ask him!
Who cares go back to Mexico you AH
About time. They are supporting criminals.
Why separate by race, when working for the ppl. Why not represent each race individually like it’s supposed to be. End all of theses caucuses. What’s good for one is good for all, right. We The People as one!!
Sign up to be a citizen and there won’t be an *illegal* problem. Stop racially dividing us more by brown pride groups, black pride etc unless there’s white pride too. Sounds easy enough but how about being American citizens joined to better our people?
Do we have a white American caucus???? All these groups should be disbanded….all discriminatory!! We’re either Americans or not…period!!
