President Biden expressed remorse, saying he didn’t want to demean any group, and sought to differentiate himself from former President Donald Trump.
President Biden said Saturday that he regrets using the term „illegal“ during his to describe the suspected killer of Georgia.
Facing frustration from some in his party for the use of the term to describe people who arrived or are living in the U.S. illegally, Biden expressed remorse, saying he didn’t want to demean any group, and sought to differentiate himself from former President Donald Trump.
In an interview with MSNBC’s Jonathan Capehart on Saturday, Biden said, „I shouldn’t have used illegal, it’s undocumented.“ The term was once common but is far less so today, particularly among Democrats who more fully embraced immigrant rights‘ issues during Trump’s presidency.
