After doubling down on his efforts to characterize MS-13 gang members as animals, President Donald Trump again on Wednesday evening accused Democrats of defending the stone cold killers.
They shouldnt be in the country, he told Fox News Brian Kilmeade during a Wednesday interview broadcast during Fox and Friends Thursday. We are doing from, the standpoint of law enforcement, a great job. The Democrats are sticking up for MS-13. You heard Nancy Pelosi the other day like trying to find all sorts of reasons why they should be able to stay. These are stone cold killers. Vicious killers.

During a roundtable discussion in California last week, Trump claims he referred to MS-13 gang members as animals, though many thought he was referring to all undocumented immigrants in his statement. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) responded to those comments by questioning whether Trump believe(s) in the spark of dimity, the dignity and worth of every person? Pelosi responded to Trumps comments on Twitter Wednesday evening.

My money's on Kate Browning-- if she gets the nod she's a no-nonsense fighter. And the money will come in-- NY1 is high priority.
