President Trump holds a Cabinet Meeting, discussing tariffs, border security, and the economy
2 min read
Following a taped interview marking President Trump’s first 100 days in office with ABC News, the President and his cabinet held a meeting Wednesday morning at the White House.
Moran asked Trump what he considered his most significant achievement 100 days into his second term.
Trump said it was border security.
“Well, I think maybe the border is the most significant, because our country was really going bad,” Trump said. “They were allowing people to come in from prisons, as you know. And you’ve heard me say it, but you’ve heard a lot of people say it. Prisons, mental institutions, gang members, murderers.”
Trump repeatedly blamed his predecessor, former President Joe Biden, for what he framed as failures on a range of issues, including immigration and border security.
Trump again said that “many murderers” and other bad people were streaming over the border under Biden’s watch.
Southern border crossings have plummeted since Trump took office and began implementing his crackdown on illegal immigration.
