(CNSNews.com) - When challenged Friday about whether hes concocting a national emergency at the border to get a wall because he couldnt get the money any other way, President Donald Trump said to ask the Angel Moms, whose sons and and daughters were killed by illegal immigrants, whether he was making it up.
At a White House Rose Garden ceremony to announce that he plans to sign an executive order declaring a national emergency at the border so he can build the wall, CNN White House Correspondent Jim Acosta asked the president what he says to critics who say hes creating a national emergency to get the wall built because he couldnt get it through other ways.
Ask the Angel moms, Trump responded.
What do you think? Do you think Im creating something? he asked the Angel Moms who were in attendance at the ceremony and were holding pictures of their loved ones who were killed by an illegal immigrant.
The president accused Acosta of asking a political question because he has an agenda.
Ask these incredible women, who lost their daughters and their sons, okay? Because your question is a very political question, because you have an agenda. Youre CNN. Youre fake news. You have an agenda, Trump said.
The numbers that you gave are wrong. Take a look at our federal prison population. See how many of them percentage-wise are illegal aliens. Just see. Go ahead and see. Its a fake question, the president added.

A few thousand rapes and murders is a small price to pay for DNC votes.
That was a good response by Trump.
Pelosi’s office won’t even talk to them, won’t let them in to talk to Pelosi, they are as good dead to dems.
It was. Trump should have let the angel moms handle all the stupid “manufactured crisis” nonsense questions from the media.
They need to do an ad with the angel moms and have it end with them looking into the camera and one say what if it was YOUR son drug from a car and lit on fire . And another says or YOUR daughter who was raped and murdered. Would you care then?
“We’re the people we’ve been waiting for” <-— Barky
Not really
Donald Trump sure is the president a lot of people have been waiting for though.
SOMETHING is fundamentally broken and defective with our system, if merely pointing out the obvious causes everyone to get the vapors. It’s just BS, these presstitutes are completely and utterly off the rails. That’s why he calls them “fake news”. He’s just pointing out what everyone out here in the cheap seats has known for a long, long time. Great guy.
No, they wouldn’t care. These people are insane, brainwashed, possessed, in a cult, call it whatever you want, the effect is the same. Appeals to facts, logic, and reason don’t work. They’ve been immunized or innoculated against reasoned discourse or persuasion. Don’t waste your time.
Kamala “Horizontal” Harris threatened to call police if the Angel Moms appeared at her office......
......but “tolerant and compassionate” Kamala says illegals are welcome in her office, anytime.......
It would affect enough soccer moms to make a difference.
Yes.
I’m just happy that my President Donald Trump has a ‘pen and a phone’.
Worked out alright for Barky, and I think it will work out fine for Trump.
Don’t be too sure about that, they are some of the worst afflicted. I don’t how “they” managed to brainwash so many people, maybe through the TV?
I used to think people in general would “come around” sooner or later. Hasn’t worked out that way, not even close.
They’re for infanticide, so why would rapes and murders phase them if it is just collateral damage for future electoral success?
I wish he would have had the Angel Moms standing behind him during the speech and actually had several of them share their stories while the media, including CNN, was covering it live - maybe had them step forward to respond personally to Acosta.
Until a liberal judge and Justice Roberts says “no.” And then game is over.
Hopefully they’ll be on another video. Maybe one of the camera people had the guts to pan over to them. Of course that would take a real news camera operator to actually pan over and cover what the president was talking about and referring to.
This is what I believe to be the one
provision of an emergency declaration
that scares Dems the most.
“He could determine that any American inside the U.S. who offers material support to the asylum seekersor, for that matter, to undocumented immigrants inside the United Statesposes an unusual and extraordinary threat to national security, and authorize the Treasury Department to take action against them.
