MSNBC’s Mika Brzezinski called Ivanka Trump “utterly sick” and “twisted” on Friday for thanking President Trump for reuniting migrant children with their parents after the families were separated crossing the U.S. border illegally, saying those family separations would never have happened in the first place without the president’s policies.
“Because for some reason, some people who work for President Trump, including his daughter, are twisting this and actually thanking President Trump for creating moments like this. How sick, how sick for someone in the White House to tweet, thank you to Donald Trump for these reunions,” the “Morning Joe” co-host said. “Because these reunions, they should have never happened. These children should have never been taken away from their parents.”
Thank you @POTUS for taking critical action ending family separation at our border. Congress must now act + find a lasting solution that is consistent with our shared values;the same values that so many come here seeking as they endeavor to create a better life for their families
