The president blasted Democrats in Congress for refusing his immigration reform proposals at the event in support of the Republican Party and his reelection. Yet he insisted, 'This had nothing to do with politics. This has nothing to with campaigning, or my campaign.' 'It's really from a humane standpoint, a humanitarian standpoint, it's horrible,' he added. A donor said that Texas' Brooks County is one of the most prominent areas for dead migrants to be found. Donors said that the migrants are often discovered by residents roaming their properties on horseback. One of the ranch owners who participated said that coyotes that are being chased by law enforcement often hide in the brush. Law enforcement often leaves, the donor said, when they can't find the drug smugglers. 'We've gotten up at three in the morning, and packed up our car, and then driven back to San Antonio, because we just did not feel safe,' the person said.

'They all the want the wall,' Trump asserted. Share or comment on this article: All rights reserved for this news site dailymail and under his responsibility
