Trump Defends Wrongful Man’s Deportation: ‘He Looked Like He Could Handle El Salvador’
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Following the controversial deportation of 29 year old Kilmar Ábrego García, a U.S. citizen who was deported to El Salvador without due process, President Donald Trump has gone on to defend ICE’s decision to deport García, claiming that he looked like he “could handle” El Salvador.
“It was an honest mistake on ICE’s part,” Trump said during a press briefing. “But it’s nothing he can’t handle. This gentleman is a large Mexican guy. He’ll fit right in at El Salvador.” Trump, who insisted that he had nothing to do with García’s deportation and put all the blame on ICE, called García’s deportation an “administrative error” and blamed it on there “being too many countries these days.”
“Back in my day, we only had a few countries,” Trump explained. “We had America, England, France, and maybe even Spain if you were feeling a little exotic. But now we’ve got El Salvador, Ecuador, Honduras, you know, all them Mexican countries. It’s just way too many to keep track of.”
Despite claiming that García’s deportation was a mistake, Trump would still go on to praise ICE’s “instinctive policing.” “Sometimes you just gotta trust your gut,” Trump said. “I’ve seen the guy. He definitely looks like he could be from El Salvador. I don’t blame ICE at all for mistaking his identity.”
Despite the widespread criticism, Trump continues to remain defiant. “He should be thanking us,” Trump concluded. “We basically gave him a free vacation to an El Salvadoran prison. The one where they keep all the Cartel bosses. It’s the opportunity of a lifetime that most Americans won’t ever get to experience.”
