El Salvador president Nayib Bukele blames self, country for drowning of father and daughter in Rio Grande

The picture of the father and daughter drowned to death in the Rio Grande was hard to look it. I don’t care if you are like me and totally against illegal immigration or not. As usual, the left and media somehow found a way to blame Trump and ICE for the death of the father and daughter. But guess what? The president of El Salvador, who just took office on June 1st if taking the blame for the death of those two. El Salvador must really want more US aid money or something.

“People don’t flee their homes because they want to,” Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele said in a news conference in San Salvador this weekend. “They flee their homes because they feel they have to.”

“We can send all the blame to any government we like,” he said, speaking in English in what The New York Times suggests may have been intended as a direct message to Trump. “We can say President Trump’s policies are wrong. We can say Mexico’s policies are wrong. But what about our blame?”

“What country did they flee? Did they flee the United States?” Bukele asked. “They fled El Salvador, they fled our country. It is our fault.”

The Times notes that Bukele, 37, who won election in February, campaigned in part on “curb[ing] the outflow of Salvadorans, who have contributed in recent months to the surging numbers of migrants trying to enter the United States.”
