Here we go again, Trump is on TV (as I am writing this) wheeling out people who were victims of undocumented immigrants.
BTW, no one is defending crime of any kind by anyone, so let's get that one out of the way.
The only reason he is doing this is to foment hatred against brown people and embolden and justify his own bigotry against that group, as well as to shirk guilt for his morally reprehensible zero tolerance policy which, unlike prior administrations, treats first offense misdemeanors as criminals and separates their children from them while they send kids to destinations all over the USA, keeping them in the US, while they are deported, making it extremely difficult to return them to their parents. Note, all of this for what is, in fact, a misdemeanor.
While he is attempting to impugn the integrity of the press, he, himself, is demonstrating a significant lack of integrity given that
he isn't reporting the fact that undocs commit, on the whole, fewer crimes than US born citizens.
On top of this, more lies about democrats, so he is trolling liberals, which is his favorite pasttime. I prefer presidents who work to bring us together, while Trump relishes is fomenting hatred of the right against the left, and everyone against brown people. He is operating from the demogogues playbook.

And....Trump & Sessions are just using "enforcing the law", to rationalize unjust morally reprehensible treatment of first offense misdemeanors.
