Watch: Trump claims President Obama was the one who started the child separation policy and built cages: 'Take a look. The press knows it, you know it, we all know it. I’m the one that stopped it.'
Smith, who is widely credited for running one of Fox News' most objective programs, sought to"separate rhetoric from reality" about the Trump administration's immigration policies. Trump claimed Tuesday he was the one who"stopped" separating migrant families at the U.S. southern border and that Obama built the chain-linked enclosures which frequently show children sleeping on mats under space blankets.
Smith's producers then played a clip of Trump getting his final say in with reporters at the White House as he met with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi."Listen for both the credit he claimed and the president he blamed," Smith said. Trump recently said he was not ruling out the possibility of restarting the program, but appeared to contradict himself Tuesday.
“It’s undeniably true that the roots of this issue stretched back many years. In 2005, President George W. Bush launched operation streamline to arrest, imprison and deport those here illegally," Smith said.
