And so we do have a humanitarian crisis. President Obama said we had a humanitarian Crisis back in 2014 when 120,000 unaccompanied children, members of families, came this country illegally. Last year, that number [of unaccompanied children and family members] was 145,000. The first three months of this year, it's already 90. So it's a growing problem. It's disingenuous, hypocritical. Democrats say it's a manufactured crisis. It's not. This is a real problem. President Trump, it was, it was his signature issue. (00:48–00:55)
