Media Attempts To Bash Trump For Featuring Families Of People Killed By Illegal Aliens

Funny how this same media never seemed to consider Barack Obama using all sorts of families in his pushes, such as to take over the health insurance and health care sectors, problematic

Trump answers critics of family separation policy with Americans ‘permanently separated’ from family by illegal immigrants

Days after yielding to pressure to reverse his policy of separating migrant families at the southern border, President Trump returned Friday to the nativist rhetoric that animated his outsider presidential campaign, casting immigrants as threats to “our citizens.”

Seeking to counter the intense criticism of his border policies, Trump invited families of Americans killed by undocumented immigrants to tell their stories of being “permanently separated” from loved ones.

“These are the stories that Democrats and people that are weak on immigration, they don’t want to discuss, they don’t want to hear, they don’t want to see, they don’t want to talk about,” Trump said at the White House.

Um, they don’t. Most of the media was reticent to cover the murder of Kate Steinle by an illegal alien, one who had been convicted of multiple crimes previously and had been deported 5 times. The Credentialed Media really tries to stay away from stories where an illegal alien is the perp. Many times, stories ignore information on things like ICE placing a detainer on one. In fact, they often trot out stories that illegals commit less crime than Americans, which missed the fact that people who are not supposed to be in the United States to start with are committing crimes.

In fact, the article spends barely any time discussing what the family members had to say. Most is just about Trump, the separation policy, and getting some sort of immigration bill passed in Congress.

At the White House event Friday, Trump and many of the family members who spoke criticized what they called one-sided media coverage that does not focus on their stories.

“We weren’t lucky enough to be separated for five days or 10 days; we’re separated permanently,” said Laura Wilkerson, whose son Josh was killed in 2010. “Any time we want to see or be close to our kids, we go to the cemetery, because that’s where they are. We could never speak to them, we can’t Skype with them.”

That’s it. In fact, the families had a lot to say, such as

How many media outlets are covering the case of an illegal alien who just confessed to murdering two women in Miami? More families that lost children to an illegal?

The president blamed Democrats for what he called weak immigration laws and policies that treat those in the country illegally too leniently, even though Republicans control Congress and failed this week to pass an immigration bill out of the House because of opposition from GOP members. Trump railed against the MS-13 gang, heroin from outside the United States, and so-called “catch and release” immigration enforcement.

It almost seems like the Washington Post is attempting to defend heroin and MS-13. Because they’re deranged.
