President Donald Trump used the death of Mollie Tibbetts on Wednesday to call for a change in immigration laws and justify his separation of illegal immigrants from their children at the border.
Trump tweeted a video message about Tibbetts — who was allegedly murdered by an illegal immigrant in Brooklyn, Iowa — just one day after two of his close associates were convicted of federal crimes.
