On his daily Facebook live podcast “The Ben Shapiro Show” Friday, host and Editor-in-Chief of The Daily Wire Ben Shapiro explained that “President Trump has a magic power” where “he can get Democrats to defend anything.”

“Meanwhile, President Trump has a magic power,” stated Ben Shapiro. “His magic power is that he can get Democrats to defend anything, to defend anyone. This is his magic power.”

Ben Shapiro’s remarks on Friday came after, according to CNSNews.com, “President Donald Trump, at a White House discussion on immigration Wednesday, referred to MS-13 gang members as ‘animals,’ although some media outlets took the remark out of context, suggesting that he was referring to all illegal immigrants.” House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi took it a step further, however, even defending MS-13 gang members, saying we “believe that … there’s a spark of divinity in every person.”

Below is a transcript of Ben Shapiro’s comments from his show Friday:

Ben Shapiro: “Meanwhile, President Trump has a magic power. His magic power is that he can get Democrats to defend anything, to defend anyone. This is his magic power. “All President Trump has to do is say, ‘I like puppies,’ and everyone on the left is like, ‘Puppies are horrible.’ And if he says, ‘I hate MS-13,’ people on the left are like, ‘MS-13, yeah, let’s give them a second shot, MS-13. Yeah, sure, their slogan is actually “rape, steal, control,” but let’s give them a second shot. I mean, Trump doesn’t like ’em. That means they must be, like, kind of okay, kind of.’ “Alright? So, Trump, as you recall, said that members of MS-13 were animals. Now, the truth is that I’m not a big fan of calling terrorists animals or monsters. Not because I don’t think they’re animals or monsters. Simply because human beings can be animals and monsters, but monsters aren’t real and treating people as animals neglects the fact that all human beings have a capacity for evil. But that’s more of a deep gloss. When Trump calls them animals, I don’t have any moral objection to it. It’s not like I’m, ‘Oh, well. That’s really insulting to the MS-13 members who chopped that guy’s head off. I just feel terrible about that.’ “But people on the left, apparently, felt the necessity to go after President Trump for going after MS-13. So, Trump, as you recall, a couple of days ago, he said that MS-13 were ‘animals.’ Then he was asked about it again, and he doubled down on it.
