Isn't he breaching Mexico's national sovereignty?

look, America is definitely not a theocracy, but we are, without a doubt, a nation of Christians and, as such, we know were commanded to give refuge to those who are in need. But heres the thing, were not being allowed to welcome them into the nation. Theyre actually storming the border. You know, its just like somebody coming into your house. You have a front door. You know what I ask? Knock on the door, ring the doorbell, allow me to open the door to let you come in. And thats what theyre not doing, is theyre demanding to come in. And I saw one of the clips from one of your reporters who was embedded down there in Tijuana and these gentlemen are saying that you know, theyre trying to come in. They know they dont qualify for asylum. And even from a Christian standpoint, it talks about who are the poor? Right? Its the women and children. And what youll see at the border its probably like 90 percent adult males.

Apparently, it's impossible for men to be poor. If they're Hispanic, at least.
