President Trump went off-script in his State of the Union speech Tuesday night and said he wanted to see the “largest numbers ever” of legal immigrants entering the country, the Daily Beast reports.
Said Trump: “I want people to come into our country, in the largest numbers ever, but they have to come in legally.”
However, the speech as written said: “I want people to come into our country, but they have to come in legally.”
Playbook: “Trump said he wants legal immigration in the ‘largest numbers ever.’ Nevermind that Hill Republicans and his White House have dumped all over that, and have in fact called for cuts to legal immigration.”
