🚋Trump says Renee Good and Alex Pretti were 'no angels' but admits: 'We're not good at public relations'

[link:|Trump says Renee Good and Alex Pretti were ‘no angels’ but admits: ‘We’re not good at public relations’] (The Independent)

Donald Trump did not fully roll back on his position, though, and claimed that ‘we don’t have a country’ without ICE

Donald Trump said that Renee Goodand Alex Pretti, both of whom were killed by federal agents in Minneapolis, were “no angels,” in a sweeping new interview with NBC News.

The president did make a concession about his own administration’s handling of the crisis, admitting, “ I don’t think we’re good at public relations.”

His claims come after weeks of protests in Minneapolis, as ICE agents continue to surge through the city as part of the administration’s immigration crackdown.

for him. And he generally does the opposite of what he says.

He is planning something very bad.
