Trump is taking part in a roundtable event in New York to fear-monger about brown people. Follow me for a real-time video thread. 
TRUMP on unaccompanied undocumented minors: "They look so innocent. They're not innocent."
Trump details violent crimes committed by immigrants in grisly detail, defends his "animals" comment: "They aren't people. These are animals. And we have to be very, very tough."
Emo Fascist Tom Homan claims "MS-13 kills for sport. They kill to terrorize."
Deputy AG Rod Rosenstein, fresh off having his job threatened by Trump (thinkprogress.org/trump-rosenste…), spends a couple minutes kissing up to Trump and fear-mongering about brown people
Trump floats idea of "deducting aid" from origin countries of undocumented immigrants
"They don't want the people that we're getting. We'll work out something, every time somebody comes in from a certain country, we'll deduct a rather large amount of money what we give them."
"They don't want the people that we're getting. We'll work out something, every time somebody comes in from a certain country, we'll deduct a rather large amount of money what we give them."
.@RepLeeZeldin defends Trump calling undocumented immigrants "animals," says, "If you're not willing to even identify the threat, you have no chance of eliminating it."
After all of this fear-mongering about MS-13 a speaker acknowledges there hasn't been an MS-13 murder in the area of New York this roundtable is taking place in in more than a year!
TRUMP: "The American dream is coming back bigger and better than ever. And I have to say, the protests, they are not so big anymore -- they are getting it. everybody is getting it."
TRUMP: "This is a horrible problem. We're bringing them out, & our people are rougher than them. That's the only language they understand. It would be wonderful if we could talk nicely & softly but the only language they understand is toughness."
Trump on Democrats pushing back on his "animals" comment: "That was the end of them, because nobody understood it. Nobody. When they started rationalizing and, 'maybe it was the way they grew up,' and maybe it was, but we're stuck with a huge problem."
Trump endorses violent ICE tactics & roughing up undocumented immigrants. Claims people can't "walk outside" on Long Island because "it's so rough." (There hasn't been an MS-13 murder in the area for more than a year!)
"I feel confident that this problem will be eradicated."
"I feel confident that this problem will be eradicated."
TRUMP closes with this: "I want to thank law enforcement b/c what they go through & the restrictions that are put on them are incredible. You gotta be nice, can't be too tough, have to be gentle. They can't touch, can't do anything, & they do incredible job, & people understand."
