Trump Says Deported Gang Members Coming Back Into U.S. 'Like Water': 'We Need The Wall!'

Source: Mediate

President Donald Trump took to Twitter on Friday morning to call for his long-promised border wall, explaining that it is needed to thwart deported MS-13 gang members from returning to the United States.




It’s unclear today what is meant by Trump’s infamous “Wall!” proposal — first pitched as a mighty 40-foot monolith covering the entirety of the Southern Border, the White House now says the wall is really more a euphemism for “border security.”

Trump is expected to give a speech at the CPAC conference this morning, so expect him to bring up the wall before a rowdy crowd of MAGA-hat clad activists.

They also reported that California's sanctuary approach has made the fight against gangs more successful because the Latino community knows the police are on their side and they are more likely to report gang activity.

More to the point, are there thousands of them ICE can kick out in the first place? An MS-13 member born in Los Angeles to two San Diego-born parents can’t be expelled from his own country regardless of how much Trump uses his gang as a dog whistle.
