President Trump lashed out at American immigration laws during a dinner with Republican governors Monday night, saying that the statutes were "the worst anywhere in the world as far as stopping people from coming in." Trump said that the only reason immigrants enter the U.S. unlawfully is because of "our weak laws that have been given to us by weak people in Congress. "The Democrats have been horrible on border security," Trump said, "and many of them are standing there and sitting there and agreeing with me 100 percent." "What happens is they get lost in our country and in some cases, these are not people that you want in the country," Trump said. White House Chief of Staff John Kelly, Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen and Energy Secretary Rick Perry -- a former governor of Texas -- also attended.
