Trump intensifies anti-immigrant rhetoric at Wisconsin campaign event

smh.com.au

Donald Trump intensified his rhetoric against undocumented immigrants during a campaign event in Wisconsin, labeling them as "stone-cold killers" and "monsters." He criticized Vice President Kamala Harris, calling her "mentally impaired" after her visit to the US-Mexico border. Trump's speech focused heavily on crime committed by some migrants, blaming Harris and President Biden for high illegal crossings. He claimed that around 7 million migrants have been arrested during Biden's presidency, a record number fueling Republican criticism. In response, Harris emphasized her plans to reform immigration and accused Trump of spreading fear. She called for stricter asylum rules and prioritized combating fentanyl trafficking. Studies show immigrants do not commit crimes at higher rates than native-born Americans.
