Trump Announces More Restrictions On Legal Immigration After DC Shooting

How do these changes advance Trump’s immigration policy agenda and his vision of what it means to be an American?

This episode: senior White House correspondent Tamara Keith, immigration policy correspondent Ximena Bustillo, and senior political editor and correspondent Domenico Montanaro.
