President Trump did something Tuesday night that he has rarely done since taking office: He used the presidential bully pulpit to reach beyond his hardcore base of supporters to make his case to the American people as a whole.

Speaking from the Oval Office for the first time during his presidency, Trump embraced our country’s tradition as a nation of immigrants, declaring “America proudly welcomes millions of lawful immigrants who enrich our society and contribute to our nation.” He then offered a cogent explanation why he believes we face what he called “a humanitarian crisis — a crisis of the heart and a crisis of the soul” along our southern border.

  1. I fully expect the media to cease broadcasting Trump speeches live. He is far too effective when he speaks so they must interfere with his connection to the voters. They will do this by tape delaying his speeches to allow the left to edit, censor, and alter his message to serve THEIR needs. COUNT ON IT.

      A Fox employee got fired today for an alteration.
