Tomi Lahren: Dems' Cheerleading for Dreamers Is 'Thinly Veiled Emotional Blackmail'

Kris Kobach: 'Ludicrous' to Say Republicans Must Agree to DACA Amnesty

Rep. Louie Gohmert said on "Fox News @ Night" that he would not defend the vulgar language used by President Trump in a bipartisan meeting, but understands the president's frustration with the U.S. immigration system.

"I'm not going to defend his language but I will defend his frustration. Here we've got people, the only people they want to talk about - Dreamers - are people that came into the country illegally," said Gohmert (R-Texas).

On Friday morning, Trump took to Twitter to defend himself after the explosive report, confirmed by Fox News, broke on Thursday night.

“Why are we having all these people from s***hole countries come here?” he said in a bipartisan meeting, according to multiple people in the room.

The Washington Post reported that he singled out Haitians, asking, “Why do we need more Haitians? Take them out."

The remarks drew a firestorm of criticism and accusations that the president is a racist, but Trump took to Twitter to deny the reports this morning.

The language used by me at the DACA meeting was tough, but this was not the language used. What was really tough was the outlandish proposal made - a big setback for DACA! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 12, 2018

Never said anything derogatory about Haitians other than Haiti is, obviously, a very poor and troubled country. Never said “take them out.” Made up by Dems. I have a wonderful relationship with Haitians. Probably should record future meetings - unfortunately, no trust! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 12, 2018

Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.), who was in the meeting, said Friday that Trump indeed uttered both comments.

Gohmert - speaking to Trump's frustration with current immigration laws - said a "huge percentage" of Dreamers do not speak English even after receiving a free education.

He said Democrats don't care about Americans whose wages are stagnating and who are having trouble finding jobs.

"They care about getting people in who don't speak the language who they can manipulate into voting for their party," said Gohmert.
