ABC News left out a remark from former President Barack Obama describing "open borders" as "unsustainable" from the televised portion of his interview on ABC's "Good Morning America."
"Immigration is tough. It always has been because, on the one hand, I think we are naturally a people that wants to help others. And we see tragedy and hardship and families that are desperately trying to get here so that their kids are safe, and they're in some cases fleeing violence or catastrophe," Obama told co-host Robin Roberts in the excluded portion on Tuesday.
"At the same time, we're a nation state. We have borders. The idea that we can just have open borders is something that ... as a practical matter, is unsustainable," he added.
ABC did air a portion where Obama blamed Republicans for the failure of comprehensive immigration reform to pass Congress, and highlighted his administration's approval of temporary legal status given to Haitian migrants following the devastating 2010 earthquake there.
"ABC World News Tonight" also excluded Obama's "open border" remarks in its coverage, instead spending less than a minute discussing the interview and focusing on the groundbreaking of the Obama Presidential Library in Chicago.

ABC= A BUNCH OF CRAP!
We have nothing but communist controlled state media now.
Partisan Media Shills alert.
When does the MSM get exposed, seems like every corrupt agency has been exposed but the MSM keeps getting away with it. When they are the main reason we’re in this mess in the first place.
Just incredible isn’t it.
nonbama didn’t mean his comment about open border - IF he even said it anyway! Just a way to angle his way into a better position to become say someones VP (when obiden finally gets lost soon forever) then someone dispensable takes his place for a short while they get wacked then he ascends to PRESIDENT again - all part of a sinister long range plan! THEN NO MORE LEGAL ELECTIONS FOR SURE = KING NOBAMA!
OBAMA TELLS ILLEGALS IT’S OK FOR THEM TO VOTE

Unsustainable democrats favorite word key to tax and spend policy.
If it moves tax it if it still moves regulate it and if it still moves subsidize it.

ABC = All Black Channel. Represents actual demographics but only as long as you live in DC, Atlanta or Chicago. Broadcast should be called “ABC World Propaganda Tonight”.
ABC sucks - that we know... it’s because ABC’s afraid the only way democrats can win is to offer citizenship for votes.
They’re wrong.
Instead of cheating they could just make their appeal to Americans. Obama was elected by Ameircans - so it can be done..
And Obama’s right about open borders - it’s not sustainable.
"immigration reform" = open borders + more legalized chain voter importation + a false promise to do something about it.
Yup.
same-same
And we found out the hard way that many GOP legislators will vote for it unless they fear their constituents.
If the Swamp is censoring Obama, then who is in charge?
I don’t believe in ‘comprehensive immigration reform’ either.
It’s a phrase that means lots of new illegals become citizens and a promise that a few miles of fence will be put up that doesn’t go up and if it did wouldn’t matter.
The ‘reform’ that has to happen is for Biden to CLOSE THE BORDER - STOP LETTING ILLEGALS IN AND SEND THE ONES HERE HOME.
Period.
In a way, “comprehensive immigration reform” is worse than the current open borders problem. For one thing, congress and the executive branch get to add lots of extras.
The MSM is to the left of Obama? Wow.
According to this person they put it back in.
But then who saw that?
Oh Bette
@bette_oh
Obama admits open borders are “unsustainable”, but ABC edited the interview & cut out that part.

ABC later put that clip back in the interview after they got called out on it. Bunch of DISINGENUOUS a$$holes
