Donald Trump’s latest attack on immigrants came in a campaign speech this weekend. At a rally in Durham, New Hampshire, on Saturday, Trump pledged to crack down on immigration if re-elected, claiming: “They’re poisoning the blood of our country, that’s what they’ve done…They’re coming into our country from Africa, from Asia, all over the world, they’re pouring into our country, nobody’s even looking at them. They just come in. The crime is going to be tremendous.” (You can watch the full remarks at the 47:20 mark.)
The Biden campaign quickly moved to condemn Trump’s remarks, with spokesperson Ammar Moussa responding to Saturday’s rally—and the anti-immigrant remarks specifically—by saying the former president “channeled his role models as he parroted Adolf Hitler, praised Kim Jong Un, and quoted Vladimir Putin while running for president on a promise to rule as a dictator and threaten American democracy.”
