President Trump said last week he’s delaying planned Immigration and Customs Enforcement deportation raids by two weeks after Democrats pushed back on the proposed policy. The decision has been criticized by some as caving into Democrats, while others say it buys time to come up with a solution.

Sara Carter told Fox New’s Steve Hilton on Sunday’s “The Next Revolution” that targeting the narco traffickers in Mexico, Central America and South America is imperative if the U.S. is to gain ground on the immigration crisis and hold partners to the South accountable.

Trump said Sunday on Twitter, “I want to give the Democrats every last chance to quickly negotiate simple changes to Asylum and Loopholes. This will fix the Souther Border, together with the help that Mexico is now giving us. Probably won’t happen, but worth a try. Two weeks and big Deportation begins!”

“President Trump is dealing with something that has been a crisis now for decades,” Carter told Hilton.

Carter, who has extensive experience covering the U.S. Mexico border during the Bush, Obama, and now, Trump administrations said, each one called it a crisis, but Trump, “for the first time has made promises he’s intending to keep them.” Further, Carter said she is hopeful that there will be bipartisan compromise after speaking with Senate Judiciary Chairman Lindsey Graham last week.

In an exclusive interview with SaraACarter.com, Graham told Carter that he is willing to work with the Democrats to change the laws. Specifically, Graham said the “Flores Settlement Agreement Act needs to change.” The Flores Act requires law enforcement to release family units into the U.S. after 20 days with a court date to process their asylum cases.

To sum it up, Carter said that “If the Democrats really care about the people that are coming across that border, they are going to stop the drug cartels from perpetuating the violence that they commit against these people, against our nation, both with their drugs and contraband and what they’ve done with the poor people that they’re trafficking.”
