SEAN HANNITY (HOST): I'm going to tell you one thing that Donald Trump has done that he'll never get credit for. Two things, actually.

Why do those of us -- why have we, as conservatives -- wanted a border wall? Now, if you listen to Democrats, we're racist. They want open borders, they want free health care, they want a path to citizenship for people that didn't respect our laws and sovereignty.

...

On the issue of wellness, yeah, we want to make sure that you don't have any type of illness that you would pass on to the American people.

Is that racist? No. Is that xenophobic? No. Is the issue of people crossing our borders illegally impacting this country greatly just on opioids alone?
