“For Trump the MS in MS-13 stands for ‘Must Stop,’ for the Democrats the MS in MS-13 stands for ‘misunderstood,'” said Fox personality Greg Gutfeld.

Dana Perino then attempted to make a point about how MS-13 is “the mafia of our generation” which became garbled because she was confused about what Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act means. She then claimed that the brutality of the group was “almost ISIS-like.”

“The sheer numbers,” are an issue, claimed personality Pete Hegseth. “There are 2,000 MS-13 members on Long Island alone.”

According to Long Island’s newspaper, Newsday, authorities there say there are about 500 active members of MS-13 spread across the island’s two counties. There are several hundred more inactive members.
