WISCONSIN, USA: In a speech delivered in Wisconsin, Donald Trump intensified his rhetoric on immigration and criticized Vice President Kamala Harris.
Addressing a crowd in Prairie du Chien, Trump labeled undocumented immigrants who commit crimes as “monsters” and “stone-cold killers.” His remarks were particularly focused on crimes against young women, accusing the Biden administration of allowing dangerous individuals into the country.
Trump’s speech came after Harris visited the U.S.-Mexico border as part of her 2024 presidential campaign. He referred to Harris as “mentally impaired” and “mentally disabled,” escalating personal attacks against the Vice President. Immigration and border security have become key issues in the race, with both candidates addressing them in recent speeches.
While Harris proposed tighter asylum restrictions and combating fentanyl trafficking, Trump focused on the crimes committed by undocumented immigrants, claiming they were part of a violent invasion. Despite data showing no higher crime rates among immigrants than native-born citizens, Trump continued to frame immigration as a major threat, using examples of families affected by fentanyl and violent crime.
Critics accuse Trump of exploiting these tragedies for political gain, while supporters, particularly families affected by crime, have backed his tough stance on immigration. The battle over immigration will likely continue to be a central issue as the 2024 election approaches.
