On Friday afternoon, President Trump did the LAST thing the Chuck Schumers of the world wanted. He showed the world the OTHER side of the illegal immigration the debate– the side Democrats choose to ignore.
He gave Angel Families a platform.
.@POTUS: “We’re gathered today to hear directly from the American victims of illegal immigration. You know, you hear the other side, you never hear this side… These are the American citizens permanently separated from their loved ones. The word ‘permanently’ being the word.” pic.twitter.com/43tJeKkyCi

Angel Mom Mary Ann Mendoza: “There are hundreds of thousands of victims every year who are affected by illegal alien crime – rape, assault, identity theft… The mainstream media does not let you know what’s really happening.” pic.twitter.com/IuwEmrdLvw

“Our first duty and our highest loyalty is to the citizens of the United States. We want safety in our country,” Trump said.

Exactly. Where’s the compassion for those families, huh? Why aren’t Pelosi’s supporters rallying in the streets, demanding for justice for them?
The left’s reaction? It’ll make you sick. They were actually disturbed by Trump giving these grieving family members a platform.
Message to the parents who are on stage with Trump at this press conference…I am so sorry for your loss..but the man you’re standing with (Trump) could give two shits…he’s using you for propaganda.

How on Earth is that weird?
We should respect every family of every race, creed, or religion who loses a loved one due to violent crime. But the President of the United States uses his powerful platform to weaponize “Angel Families” and demonize undocumented immigrants. Horrifying.

Trump can round up “Angel Families” in a day or so to exploit their grief.
Melania can plan a tour of facilities in Texas in 48 hour.
Yet, we STILL don’t have a reunification plan for these families.

Exploit their grief? You guys won’t even BOTHER to talk about what happened to them. You’re too busy feeling sorry for people who WILLINGLY string their kids along while they break the law. YOU GUYS are sick.
Per DJT, if your loved one is killed by a brown person, you’re an “angel family,” if your loved one is killed by a white person, you’re (not helpful to the dog whistling, so never mind that), and if you’re a brown person and your loved one is stolen by the USA, you’re irrelevant.

Crawl back under your rock. Seriously. The world would be better off.
Libs don’t even want to talk about this either…
Angel Mom says Trump saved her from suicide:
“I was gonna end my life – I had no purpose. But President Trump coming down that escalator that day and talking about illegal immigration stopped me in my tracks.”#MAGA

Nope. No compassion for her. Only for lawbreakers.
