Part 2/10:
Senator Van Holland's visit to El Salvador was primarily fueled by a narrative from the Democratic party alleging that Garcia was suffering in deplorable conditions—tortured, starved, and mistreated—in a "death camp."

However, President Bukele did not play along with the anticipated narrative; instead, he agreed to facilitate a meeting between the senator and the alleged gang member, seemingly to prove a point.
