Trump on DACA: ‘These Are Good People,’ ‘It Should Have Been Solved by Obama’

‘People in this country want security, safety, they want their military’

EXCERPT:

TRUMP: "If you see numerous senators on the other side, they said, 'We’d give the wall in two minutes if we could do something with DACA.' Everybody wants to solve the DACA problem. They've been wanting to solve it for a long time. It should have been solved by President Obama. It would have been easier to solve it, especially when he had the House and the Senate, they could have solved it in a day, but they didn’t solve it. He didn’t solve things and he did something that he didn’t have the right to do. You understand, he did an executive order and that was no good. And by the way, it wasn’t me. The courts were not upholding that executive order, you have to do it through Congress. I want to solve the DACA problem. I will consider that a great achievement to solve the DACA problem. It’s been out there for a long time. These are good people. These are people that should be able to stay in this country. We’re going to solve the DACA problem, but we also want to solve a tremendous problem on the southern border, which is crime. We need a wall, we need the drugs to stop flowing in."
