Arnold went on to say that immigrants come to America “for the great opportunities America has in education, jobs, creating a family,” adding that they therefore have a responsibility to “give something back.”
Panelist Whoopi Goldberg attempted to push back on Arnie’s comments, telling him: “90 per cent of the people who come here are trying to do the right thing, and a lot of what’s happening right now is people are getting snatched — who shouldn’t be snatched — out of the country.”
Sunny Hostin also refuted what he’d said, pointing out that “immigrants are much less likely to commit crimes in this country than American-born citizens.”
