WASHINGTON—U.S. President Donald Trump said that deportations since his inauguration reflect that “I’m just doing what we said we would do” to make the country safer, adding that travel restrictions on people from countries suspected of sympathizing with terrorism were “getting such praise.”
“We’re actually taking people that are criminals, very, very hardened criminals in some cases with a tremendous track record, and we’re getting them out,” Mr. Trump said, at a joint press conference with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, in which the two men were asked about contrasts in the two countries’ approach on refugees.
“It’s a stance of common sense,” Mr. Trump said in apparent reference to the travel restrictions. “We are going to pursue it vigorously.”
Mr. Trudeau offered polite disagreement.
