President Donald Trump praised British Prime Minister Keir Starmer for curbing boats of illegal immigrants crossing the English Channel, telling the United Kingdom's leader he's doing a "fantastic thing."
Trump stopped for questions with Starmer and his wife, Victoria Starmer, ahead of their meeting at Trump Turnberry golf club in Scotland on Monday.
"Immigration is a big, a big factor. And I think, frankly, if they're coming from other countries, and you don't know who they are, and, are they coming from prisons? We have them where they came in from prisons who are moving them all out," Trump began. "Last month, we had zero people come into the country, zero other than coming through legal means."
"You're doing not a good thing, you're doing a fantastic thing," Trump added. So I know nothing about the boats. But if the boats are loaded up with bad people, and they usually are, because, you know, other countries don't send their best, they send people that they don't want, they're not stupid people. And they send the people that they don't want. And I've heard that you've taken a much stronger stance on."
