The children cleared initial U.S. health screenings and one of them was in the U.S. for five days before suddenly showing signs of illness.
His tweets on the deaths in U.S. custody of a 7-year-old girl and an 8-year old boy were his first words on the subject and came with no expression of remorse for what happened. Instead he said their fate shows why the U.S. needs a wall at the Mexican border.
Trump addressed the matter during a week in which he also misrepresented what hes done for military pay in a speech to troops in Iraq and told a faulty story about the Iran nuclear deal.

Just another day in the Era of Trump.

Whenever Trump says anything, I assume it's not true. I swear, if he said today was Monday, I'd have to check the calendar!
