Earlier this year the corporate media  ridiculed President Trump's claim that a crisis was developing on the Mexican border.

In an interview with Chris Wallace of Fox News Sunday, Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) commented on Democrats' opposition to President Trump's announcement that of a mass deportation of illegal aliens is pending.  Said Cotton: "So Chris I was just going to say healthy skepticism is warranted when you’re dealing with Democrats on immigration. Let’s just think about the Democrats’ position here Chris. These [illegal aliens] are people who have claimed asylum in our country, they’ve had their day in court, they’ve had their claims rejected and now they face a valid and final order of removal.

At the recent rally of his supporters in Orlando, Florida, President Trump strongly denounced the policies of Democrats on illegal immigration.  He stated, "On no issue are Democrats more extreme and more depraved than when it comes to border security. The Democrat agenda of open borders is morally reprehensible. It is the greatest betrayal of the American middle class and, frankly, American life. Illegal mass migration brings in millions of low-wage workers to compete for jobs, wages, and opportunities against the most vulnerable Americans — cutting off their path to the American dream.
