Wolf Blitzer Presses Jared Kushner on W.H. Border Policy: Why Doesn’t Trump Do More to Protect Migrant Children?

‘The president has been very clear about the fact that it’s a very dangerous journey to cross the border’

EXCERPT:

BLITZER: "But in the meantime, as these kids are here in the United States, whether they came in legally, illegally, shouldn’t they at least be able to take a bath or shower or have clean water and soap? Shouldn’t they at least be taken care of?"

KUSHNER: "Yeah, absolutely. I know Border Patrol is doing the best they can to accommodate. They were not set up to deal with the unusual flows that they’re getting right now. They’ve asked Congress for more resources to be able to do the job in the way that the President wants them to do it, which is humanely. They’re doing their best, but it's obviously an unusual circumstance and we’re working hard with them every day to try to improve the situations."
