Migrants are animals to Donald Trump
Migrants are animals to Donald Trump, in the middle of a speech to an audience in Michigan, something that has generated mixed reactions in the country.
Donald Trump delivered his speech titled “Biden’s border bloodbath” in the city of Grand Rapids, Michigan.
This state, with Wisconsin, are undecided and could determine whether Biden or Trump occupies the White House next year.
In Donald Trump’s view migrants are animals, and he pointed out that immigrants who are in the United States illegally should have no rights.
The speech was delivered Tuesday in Michigan, resorting to derogatory rhetoric he has employed time and again on the campaign trail.
The Republican presidential candidate, flanked by several law enforcement officials, listed several criminal cases involving suspects who were in the country illegally, using often graphic terms, and warned that violence and chaos would consume the United States if he did not win the Nov. 5 election.

Migrants are animals to Donald Trump
Once again the homicide of the nurse by a migrant came to light.
Speaking about Laken Riley, a 22-year-old nursing student from Georgia allegedly killed by a Venezuelan immigrant who was in the country illegally, Trump said some immigrants were subhuman.
“Democrats say, “Please don’t call them animals, they’re humans.” I said, ‘No, they’re not humans, they’re not humans, they’re animals,'” said Trump, who was president of the United States between 2017 and 2021.
During his speeches, Trump often claims that immigrants illegally crossing the border with Mexico have escaped from prisons and insane asylums in their countries of origin and are fueling criminality in the United States.
Although available data on the immigration status of criminals is scarce, researchers say that people living illegally in the United States do not commit violent crimes at a higher rate than native-born citizens.
Previously, his speeches did not reach that level of contempt for citizens of other countries, but this year, his discourse has been more intense.
In a clear position for Donald Trump, migrants are animals.

Seeking votes from the extremes
Biden blames Trump for encouraging Republicans not to pass legislation in Congress this year that would have strengthened security at the southern border and introduced new measures aimed at reducing illegal immigration.
“Donald Trump is engaging in extreme rhetoric that promotes division, hatred and violence in our country,” Michael Tyler, Biden’s campaign communications director, told reporters Tuesday ahead of Trump’s speech.
Trump delivered his speech, titled “Biden’s Border Bloodbath,” in the city of Grand Rapids, Michigan, which along with Wisconsin are two swing states that could determine whether Biden or Trump occupies the White House next year.
Some 38% of Republicans cited immigration as the country’s top problem in a Reuters/Ipsos poll released in late February, as did one in five independents.
