"We have criminals that came into our country and they were naturalized," Trump said, vowing that, "If I have the power to do it – I’m not sure that I do, but if I do – I would de-naturalize. Absolutely."
Trump clarified his recent use of the term "reverse migration," saying it means removing people already inside the U.S.
"Get people out that are in our country – get them out of here," Trump said.

Lakanwal faces one count of first-degree murder and two counts of assault with intent to kill while armed in the shooting, charges that prompted the Trump administration to halt all asylum decisions and pause issuing visas for people traveling on Afghan passports.
