Neera Tanden to Brianna Lyman Defending ICE: Today, Trump ‘Is in a Very Different Position than You’
‘He did not say they shouldn‘t have been there’
EXCERPT:
TANDEN: "Can I just point out that Donald Trump himself says he‘s actually in a very different position than you? Today, he said they shouldn‘t have been killed. Basically, that‘s what he said."
LYMAN: "They should be alive today. Yes."
TANDEN: "He did not say they shouldn‘t have been there. He said, 'This shouldn‘t have happened.' And the fact that you can‘t say those basic things, that it shouldn‘t have happened — "
LYMAN: "I just said that it shouldn‘t have happened."
TANDEN: "But you‘re blaming them. And Donald Trump did not blame them. He basically said ICE officials shouldn't have done this. And you‘re saying that they were responsible. I think that‘s inhumane."
