LAURA INGRAHAM (HOST): I am very confused, so you’re saying the president arguing for vigorous border enforcement including honoring deportation orders --

LUIS MIRANDA: He is calling it an invasion --

INGRAHAM: Hold on --

MIRANDA: He is demonizing people, Laura.

INGRAHAM: A lot of people have called it an invasion over the years, that’s not all that surprising today.

MICHAEL MEYERS: It is an invasion, it is an invasion. When you cross the borders of the country and you are not welcomed, and you don’t have a visa, that's an invasion.
