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:
Let me get this straight you want the kids that were brought illegally to the USA to be able to stay, so when the parents are sent back to their home countries who will be taking care of these kids? Are you going to put your money where your mouth is?
Liberals will always find fault with conservatives,, and not at all unusual for them to cherry pick a specific item + blow it all out of proportion
Criminals should feel afraid. Legal residents and citizens have no reason to fear. Although I agree ICE could have met with the caucus.
Actually many should be worried about ICE in their districts.
THE ILLEGAL ONES!
The ones who voted you into office.
Just gonna throw this out there. If they were here LEGALLY and are not CRIMINALS then they would not fear leaving their houses.
Denial of science? Your kidding right Scott. Run us through you X Y chromosome b******t.

Unfortunately, MS-13 related arrests in Long Island show half if those arrested came through DACA. If Hispanic Caucus member wants deny facts, they clearly aren’t interested in problem solving.
Just want to obstruct. Good for them, not allowing them to get into the middle of things and disrupt business.
The party that has won over a 1000 seats from Democrats! lol yep he’s a lefty.
