President Trump denied that border patrol agents fired tear gas on children over the weekend during a confrontation with a group of migrants. Asked once whether he was comfortable with his administration gassing children, Trump said: 'They're not – as you know, they're not. 'They had to use [it] because they were being rushed by some very tough people. And they used tear gas,' he argued. 'And here's the bottom line: Nobody's coming into our country unless they come in legally.' He insisted again, several minutes later, as he was asked if gassing children is appropriate that his administration hasn't. 'We didn't. We don't use it on children,' he asserted. The denials follow weekend reports that women and children were hit with tear gas as migrants attempted to storm the southern border.
