Details
Former US President Donald Trump, who has been campaigning against migrants and foreigners for years, has further escalated his rhetoric during the election campaign. During a campaign speech in Grand Rapids, Michigan, Trump accused Democratic President Joe Biden of causing a "bloodbath" with his border policy. According to Trump, because of lax immigration policies, America is facing an "invasion" of criminals from other countries who come from prisons and "lunatics" and attack and kill innocent people in the United States.
They are not people, they are animals
Addendum
Some 38% of Republicans cited immigration as the country's top problem in an Ipsos poll released in late February 2024.
Trump often claims without evidence that migrants have caused a surge in violent crime in US cities, Reuters reports. The news agency also reports that in Wisconsin, Trump vowed to stop "the robbery, rape, slaughter and destruction of our American suburbs, cities and towns." Trump warned that the upcoming elections could be the last in America.
"This country is finished if we don't win this election. And I heard somebody say... two or three days ago, he said that if we don't win, this could be the last election in our country. And that may be true," he said.
Recall
The New York State Supreme Court has rejected Donald Trump's bail papers for $175 million in a civil fraud casedue to the lack of a current financial statement.
