certainly not by the President of the United States but whatever.........If you consider all of Trump's comments about immigrants, starting with calling Mexicans "rapists" during the campaign, it's not really hard to imagine him calling all immigrants "animals". If there is something to quibble about, I doubt that the media actually went out of their way to intentionally misquote him.
