Trump: why do people from backward countries go to the US?

'Why would we bring all these people from backward countries here?' The American president would have made that statement during a meeting with senators about immigration policy in his Oval Office.

Asked about Trump's remark, a White House spokesman said: 'Certain politicians in Washington are choosing to fight for foreign countries, but President Trump will always fight for the American people. '
