Trump’s solution for reunifying migrant families: ‘Don’t come to our country illegally’
President Donald Trump said Tuesday that the solution to the government’s failure to meet a deadline for reunifying separated undocumented immigrant parents from their children is for such migrants to stop entering the U.S. illegally in the first place.
“Well, I have a solution. Tell people not to come to our country illegally. That’s the solution. Don’t come to our country illegally. Come like other people do. Come legally,” he told reporters on the White House’s south lawn Tuesday morning as he departed for his weeklong trip to Europe. “I’m saying this very simply: We have laws. We have borders. Don’t come to our country illegally. It’s not a good thing.”
