House Republican doubles down on jab at Trump’s immigration enforcement

The Guardian US reports that Florida Republican congresswoman María Elvira Salazar has criticized Donald Trump's administration for compromising his legacy by allegedly not showing the "whole picture" regarding immigration enforcement. In an interview on CBS News's Face the Nation, Salazar, who is in a tight re-election race, urged Trump not to "squander" his relationship with Hispanic voters.

While her remarks were directed at top administration advisers, it was evident that she was specifically concerned about the president's plans to carry out the largest mass deportation of undocumented immigrants in US history.
