When challenged Friday about whether he’s concocting a national emergency at the border to get a wall because he couldn’t get the money any other way, President Donald Trump said to ask the Angel Moms, whose sons and and daughters were killed by illegal immigrants, whether he was making it up.

At a White House Rose Garden ceremony to announce that he plans to sign an executive order declaring a national emergency at the border so he can build the wall, CNN White House Correspondent Jim Acosta asked the president what he says to critics who say he’s creating a national emergency to get the wall built because he couldn’t get it “through other ways.”

“Ask the Angel moms,” Trump responded.

“What do you think? Do you think I’m creating something?” he asked the Angel Moms who were in attendance at the ceremony and were holding pictures of their loved ones who were killed by an illegal immigrant.

The president accused Acosta of asking a “political question” because he has an “agenda.”

“Ask these incredible women, who lost their daughters and their sons, okay? Because your question is a very political question, because you have an agenda. You’re CNN. You’re fake news. You have an agenda,” Trump said.

“The numbers that you gave are wrong. Take a look at our federal prison population. See how many of them percentage-wise are illegal aliens. Just see. Go ahead and see. It’s a fake question,” the president added.
