Former President Trump reacted Thursday night to President Biden’s claim during his first solo news conference that Trump left migrant children to « starve to death » on the Mexican side of the border. Biden told reporters Thursday afternoon: « When an unaccompanied child ends up at the border, we [aren’t] going to let them starve to death and stay on the other side – No previous administration did that either, except Trump. I’m not going to do it. » Trump, in an interview with Fox News’ « Ingraham Angle, » said « it’s just the opposite. » « By the time we finished what we were doing [on the border], very few people were coming up because they knew they weren’t going to get through. We stopped ‘catch and release’ – which was a disaster, » he said. « The very biggest thing was, we had the Remain In Mexico policy, and that means that we wouldn’t allow people to wait in our country until they were totally checked out, which most of them didn’t get checked out, and they would go back to their own country.
