Trump called illegal immigrants “animals”.

Donald Trump, the candidate for the 2024 US presidential election, called immigrants who entered the US illegally as “animals” in his campaign speech.

In his election speech on Tuesday, the former American president mentioned several criminal cases in which the defendants are illegal immigrants. Trump then claimed that due to these conditions, if he does not win this year’s US presidential election, this country will be engulfed in violence and chaos.

According to Reuters, in another speech in Wisconsin, he made similar statements and said that the 2024 presidential election is the “final battle” for the American people.

Referring to the case of the murder of a 22-year-old student in the state of Georgia, in which the main suspect is an illegal immigrant from Venezuela, he said: “Democrats say please don’t call them (immigrants) animals; They are human beings. I say no, they are not human, they are not human; They are animals.”

Trump has repeatedly claimed that immigrants who illegally enter the United States from the Mexican border have escaped from prison in their respective countries and are bringing crime with them to the United States.

While there is no comprehensive information about the immigration status of criminals in America, researchers say that immigrants living in America do not have more crime statistics than citizens of this country.

However, in his campaign speeches, Trump continues to refer to murder cases in which the accused are illegal immigrants. He also claims that he met with the families of the victims; A claim that has been questioned in several cases by relatives of the victim.
