The former president continued his campaign to denigrate people coming to the U.S. in search of a better life
Former president Donald Trump, who opened his 2016 campaign declaring undocumented immigrants “rapists,” took the dehumanization even further this weekend, saying some immigrants are “not people … these are animals.”
“I don’t know if you call them people. In some cases they’re not people, in my opinion,” Trump said at an Ohio rally on Saturday. “But I’m not allowed to say that because the radical left says that’s a terrible thing to say.”
“These are bad — these are animals,” he added. “And we have to stop it.”
This is the best summary I could come up with:
We learn the language,” Moreno, who called Trump a “lunatic invading the party” in 2016, said during his remarks.
“Now we’re going to put a 100 percent tariff on every single car that comes across [the] line, and you’re not going to be able to sell those guys — if I get elected,” he said.
In an email to The Washington Post, Trump campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung said that the comments were in reference to imported vehicles, not violence.
“Biden’s policies will create an economic bloodbath for the auto industry and autoworkers,” he added.
Responding to Trump’s bloodbath comment, Biden campaign spokesperson James Singer said in a statement, “This is who Donald Trump is: a loser who gets beat by over 7 million votes and then instead of appealing to a wider mainstream audience doubles down on his threats of political violence.
He wants another January 6, but the American people are going to give him another electoral defeat this November because they continue to reject his extremism, his affection for violence, and his thirst for revenge.”
