Visiting the border, Trump says immigration 'system is full'

President Trump visited the U.S.-Mexico border in California Friday. While downplaying his previous threats to cut off cross-border traffic entirely and praising Mexico for “terrific” apprehension levels in recent days, the president also said during an appearance with border officials that “the system is full.” Amna Nawaz reports on Trump’s rhetoric and the prolonged delays at ports of entry.
