BORDER/IMMIGRATION/KELLYANNE CONWAY/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “Counselor to the president Kellyanne Conway claimed Tuesday [11-27-18] that President Donald Trump’s warnings of violent migrants making their way toward the U.S. were vindicated over the weekend by clashes at the Mexican border, even though no U.S. law enforcement officers were seriously injured amid efforts to block crowds of migrants attempting to cross the border into California…The president’s warnings about migrants making their way toward the U.S. through Mexico were panned by some as fear-mongering ahead of the midterm elections held Nov. 6. But Conway said those who accused the president of raising the issue only to score political points have ‘been disproven.’ Conway’s comments came after Trump claimed on Monday that three border patrol agents were ‘were very badly hurt, getting hit with rocks and stones’ over the weekend, even though Customs and Border Protection said no agents or officers were seriously injured and that officers ‘effectively managed an extremely dangerous situation involving over 1,000 individuals.'”
