How Trump Makes One Of America's Most Brutal Gangs Stronger
This is both a must-read and a must-watch.
Ever heard about MS 13, one of the most brutal gangs in the US? It's estimated to have 10,000 members nationwide and is known for different brutal crimes that happen on a daily basis.
Ever thought that US President Donald Trump makes them stronger with his anti-Hispanic rhetoric and his anti-migration policies?
Central American immigrants are the gang's primary targets. But according to Trump, most of them are criminals anyway.
In this extraordinary video by CNN, members of MS 13 have been interviewed anonymously. They also say that people - illegal migrants who do not see any future in the US because of Donald Trump - tend to join them.
