GANGS/IMMIGRATION/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “President Donald Trump warned on Wednesday [5-23-18] he was working on a plan to reduce U.S. aid to countries he says are doing nothing to stop MS-13 gang members from crossing into the United States illegally…Trump has made the fight against MS-13 a major part of his drive to stem the flow of immigrants illegally into the United States. Last week, he called gang members ‘animals,’ drawing scorn from Democrats. On Wednesday, he defended his description…Trump did not give detail on his plan to cut funding for countries from which MS-13 gang members originate.”
