Trump met with ‘build the wall’ chants as he goes on anti-migrant rant at Bronx rally

Donald Trump was met with chants of “build the wall” on Thursday evening as herehashed his anti-immigrant rhetoric during a campaign rally in the Bronx.

Speaking in Crotona Park in the South Bronx – a Democratic stronghold with a large Hispanic and Black population – the former president baselessly sought to paint migrants from China, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and other nations as a threat to the United States.

In a particularly xenophobic moment, hebaselessly claimed that migrants are “building an army” to attack the US from inside its borders.

“You look at these people… they are physically fit, they’re 19 to 25, almost everyone is a male, and they look like fighting age,” he told the crowd of supporters.

“I think they’re building an army. I think they want to get us from within. I think they’re building an army… they have something in mind.”

He also sought to connect record-level illegal migration to the economic hardship of Black and Hispanic voters, claiming, again without evidence, that migrants were taking jobs away from them.

“We are not going to let these people come in and take our city away from us and take our country away,” he said.

“African Americans are getting slaughtered. Hispanic Americans are getting slaughtered,” he claimed, blaming President Joe Biden’s economic agenda for hurting minority voters.

He went on to promise to conduct “the largest criminal deportation operation in our country’s history” if he’s re-elected in November – comments that were met with cheers and chants of “build the wall” and “send them back” from his crowd of supporters.

His comments mark the latest anti-immigrant rhetoric from the former president –rhetoric that has drawn comparisons to Adolf Hitler and other
