President Donald Trump on Saturday attempted to blame Democrats for the two deaths of immigrant children being held by his Border Patrol and Customs enforcement officers.
“Any deaths of children or others at the Border are strictly the fault of the Democrats and their pathetic immigration policies that allow people to make the long trek thinking they can enter our country illegally,” Trump claimed.
“They can’t,” he argued. “If we had a Wall, they wouldn’t even try!”
“The two children in question were very sick before they were given over to Border Patrol,” Trump continued.
“The father of the young girl said it was not their fault, he hadn’t given her water in days. Border Patrol needs the Wall and it will all end,” he claimed. “They are working so hard & getting so little credit!”
