'Huge failure': Ex-Trump aide warns Trump's staff isn't telling him the truth

"The View's" co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin believes that President Donald Trump's staff either isn't sharing the reality with him or isn't telling him the truth.

Trump spoke to ABC News in an interview for the first 100 days, and made statements that concerned his former White House communications director.

Among the things Trump argued about was that a Maryland man, whom the government acknowledged in court was wrongfully deported, was an MS-13 gang member because he had the letters written on his hand. In fact, Kilmar Ábrego García had tattoos on his hand that included images like a cannabis leaf, a smiley face, a cross and a skull. Someone digitally put the letters above the symbols, claiming they represented MS-13.

Speaking to ABC News, however, it became clear Trump was confused, and thought those typed letters and numbers were part of the tattoo. Family photos confirm that the MS-13 had been digitally written.

"What stood out was two things, this MS-13 bit — it seemed very clear to me, knowing Donald Trump, he was not briefed that that is not a real image and it was photoshopped," said Griffin. "That is a huge failure of his staff if they are not saying before these interviews, sir, you should not reference that."

Co-host Sunny Hostin said that she thinks Trump's staff is "scared of him."

"And it speaks to a sort of timidity," Griffin continued. "Donald Trump won on immigration and he's underwater. Only 45% on it. And it's because he's focusing on deporting people without due process under law. What makes America the greatest nation on Earth is that you get that due process. Donald Trump of all people should be glad that you're innocent until proven guilty."

The crowd laughed and applauded at the comment.

It isn't the only issue. In an interview with TIME magazine, Trump was asked whether he was defying the U.S. Supreme Court, which demanded the administration "facilitate" the release of Ábrego García from the prison in El Salvador.

“That’s not what my people told me — they didn’t say it was, they said it was — the nine to nothing was entirely different," Trump said.
