Former US president Barack Obama decried his successor’ s decision to end an amnesty for 800 ,000 people brought to America illegally as children, describing it as “wrong , ” “ self-defeating” and “cruel . ”
In a rare re- entry onto the political stage, Obama used a Facebook post to slam Trump ’s decision and call on Congress to step in .
“To target these young people is wrong — because they have done nothing wrong . It is self- defeating — because they want to start new businesses, staff our labs , serve in our military and otherwise contribute to the country we love. And it is cruel , ” he wrote .
