In remarks to several hundred often-cheering attendees at the Nevada GOP Convention, Trump portrayed himself as the toughest against illegal immigration, saying at one point, I think I got elected largely because we are strong on the border. Trump was in Las Vegas to assist Dean Heller, the only Republican U.S. senator seeking re-election in a state that Democrat Hillary Clinton won in 2016. But he excluded any mention of the fact that a massive public outcry, including from members of his own family, forced him to reverse course this week and end the practice of separating children from families after they illegally cross the southern border into the U.S. On immigration, we have to be very strong, Trump said, saying the immigration problem should have been solved years ago and blaming Democrats for causing it. Trump said Republicans are for strong borders, no crime and called it a winning issue for the party. The fact is we need more Republicans because the Democrats are obstructionists.
