Donald Trump attacks immigrants, this time in the midst of his search for votes in New York, during an interview with New York radio station WABC, where he pointed out that those who cross the border from Mexico to the United States bring with them contagious diseases, in addition to calling them terrorists.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

It's nothing new for former President Donald Trump to attack immigrants. Throughout his political career, he has made a series of statements that directly allude to those who enter the country in search of a better quality of life. However, on this occasion, he did so in the midst of seeking votes in New York.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Republican tycoon, who is seeking a second term in office, railed against the immigrant community during an interview with New York radio station WABC on Wednesday, saying that those who cross the border from Mexico to the United States bring with them contagious diseases, and calling them terrorists.<\/span><\/p>\n

"They come as terrorists. There are a lot of terrorists and people with highly contagious diseases arriving," he stressed.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cYou know, all of a sudden you see there's a race against tuberculosis. There's a trend toward things that we haven't talked about for years in this country,\u201d Trump added.<\/span><\/p>\n

In addition, he added that these immigrants who enter the United States speak unknown languages.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe have no idea who they are or where they come from,\u201d Trump said. \u201cWe have no idea. They speak languages we don\u2019t even know. We have people with languages we don\u2019t know anything about. It\u2019s crazy.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Attacking immigration is one of Trump's favorite points to attract his followers. In December 2023, he said that "they are poisoning the blood of our country. They are coming into our country from Africa, from Asia, and from all over the world."<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt is a very sad thing for our country. It is poisoning the blood of our country. It is very bad and people are coming with illnesses. People are coming with everything they can possibly have,\u201d he added at a rally in New Hampshire.<\/span><\/p>\n

Time and again, the Republican has made xenophobic speeches against migrants, claiming that they have caused the worst invasion the United States has ever suffered.<\/span><\/p>\n

Despite all this, Trump is the favorite in 5 of the 6 key states to win the November elections (Michigan, Arizona, Nevada, Georgia and Pennsylvania), according to polls by The New York Times, which also noted that Democratic representative Joseph Biden has lost the support of young African-Americans and Hispanics, a large part of his electorate base, due to discontent over the economy and the war in Gaza.<\/span><\/p>\n

Yesterday afternoon, Trump appeared in Crotona Park, in the South Bronx in New York, where he sought the support of Latinos and the African-American community, assuring them of security, prosperity and success in schools.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe biggest negative impact is on our black population and our Hispanic population who are losing their jobs, losing their homes, losing everything they can lose,\u201d Trump said.<\/span><\/p>\n

At the rally, in a district where more than half the population is Hispanic and more than a quarter African-American, Trump argued that \u201cmillions\u201d of immigrants are emptying their countries\u2019 prisons, entering the United States illegally and committing \u201cimmigrant crimes.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Amid chants of \u201cSend them back\u201d and \u201cBuild the wall,\u201d Trump promised \u201cthe largest criminal deportation in history,\u201d while suggesting that immigrants \u201care creating an army from within\u201d because \u201cthey tend to be physically fit, between 19-25 years old, almost all of them are men, and they are of fighting age.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
