Abrams hits Trump on immigration, the wall

In her official response to Trump's speech, Democrat Stacey Abrams hit the president on his immigration policies and his vow to build a border wall.

Trump slammed Democrats for wanting "open borders," but Abrams blasted the administration for its child separation policy and said that "compassionate treatment at the order is not the same as open borders."

"Democrats stand ready to effectively secure our ports and border but we must all embrace that from agriculture to health care to entrepreneurship America is made stronger by the presence of immigrants, not walls," she added.
