CNN Asks Wife of Deported Immigrant if She's Mad at Trump, It Backfires Hard
Quote:“I was reading — listen, a lot of people would be furious about what the government has done, maybe express their ire toward the president, but I read that you're not mad at the government, you understand the laws. Can you explain that to me a little bit? And tell me also, what has ICE said to you?” Baldwin asked.
“Yes, I am not upset at our government due to the fact that I am a U.S. citizen and that our laws come first,” Garcia explained. “Our laws are just broken and need to be fixed, but I can't be mad at Trump for doing his job because that is his job to protect us as U.S. citizens from criminals.”
“The only thing is my husband was not a criminal,” Garcia continued. “Those are the laws that need to be fixed because they're broken. For the people that are here who were brought as children, doing the right thing, and have never committed a crime, we need to fix a pathway to citizenship for them. For the criminals that have come here illegally, they need to go back.”

There was nothing to "backfire," since the reporter was asking her to expound on what she read, which was that she wasn't mad at the government.
Now, if she had said "I know you have to be fuming over your husband's deportation - can you expound on that?" then you would have a point, but that's not the case. Much ado about nothing.

I'd still bet the Communist News Network was hoping for a different outcome than, "Trump is just doing his job"..................which, based on the circumstances, we could extrapolate to ......."Obama didn't do his".

Watched the video, that lady gets it.
Hey, I got an idea. Let's make a deal. Build the wall, criminals get the boot, contributors get to stay and get put on a path to citizenship but with NO voting rights. I guarantee she would agree. She would do back flips for that deal.
..but the dems won't do it. It's almost like they don't give a sh*t about people or solving the problem, they just want the political football to use against the GOP.
When will the good democrats (if there are any left) hold the far/alt-left wing of your party to account, and demand they stop playing politics and do a deal with President Trump?

True on the 'backfire' aspect. Actually I'm glad she asked it and then gave airtime to the response. Lots of places probably wouldn't... so while the fuming is 'nothing', the comment is important
Having said that, I'm willing to bet there were lots of people who wanted her to ask the question you posed and would have been shocked at the answer.
