What was really tough was the outlandish proposal made - a big setback for DACA!" Trump tweeted on Friday. Love, whose parents immigrated from Haiti, told "State of the Union" that she thinks the President's comments were racist.
"I think they were, yes. I think they were unfortunate. I don't know if they were taken -- I wasn't in the room. I know the comments were made.

Love also told "State of the Union" that she was contacted by the White House to discuss immigration reform. "I don't know if those comments would be made if I was in the room," she said.
