[00:50] IsambardPrince The president made his comments when asked to respond to Judge James Boasbergs criticism in court on Friday that the proclamation was signed in the dark of night. [00:50] IsambardPrince We want to get criminals out of our country, number one, and I dont know when it was signed because I didnt sign it, Trump said.
