Gohmert, who represents most of East Texas in Congress, defended Trump in part and spoke against undocumented immigrants during a Thursday night appearance on Fox News.

“I’m not going to defend his language, but I will defend his frustration,” Gohmert said on the show. “I mean here, we’ve got here, the only people they want to talk about being 'Dreamers' are people who came to the country illegally. People picture young, precious little people, and a lot of them are middle-aged.”

Gohmert continued: “We’re seeing statistics that a huge percentage don’t speak English even though they’re getting free education and all kinds of free things, and we’ve got these same people who are pushing to keep (gang members) here even more than they are to help make sure that our dreamers who were born here in America have that chance for a future.

“It is so frustrating, and every time — every time — anyone in Washington talks about legalization of anyone here illegally, the Border Patrol says they get these surges, and they’ve been getting them since August,” he said. "And so it is a frustrating time."
