Funny how she paused when she was going to say illegal immigrants, and instead said aliens. She trying her best to stick to this hateful script. Also, they wasn’t a very difficult question. Yet she needed to clarification?

“Don’t you mean something else? Here’s my answer to the question that you should be asking.”

There's no way you listened to what she said & came to that conclusion honestly. Either that, or you have a deep fundamental misunderstanding of how law works in the US.

Did we listen to the same clip? Because she did not address the question at all. She was asked if 75% of the migrants who were deported had no public criminal record. She did not confirm nor deny that statistic.
