Donald Trump, the Republican nominee for president, said at a town house on Wednesday that he was” just saying what was reported” when he refuted says that refugees in Ohio were eating animals.
Trump has recently reinforced a false allegation that has become widely discredited that Haitian refugees in Springfield, Ohio were stealing people ‘ animals or bringing animals from playgrounds for food.
There have been no reliable reports of Haitians having pets, and Republicans in Ohio have regularly argued that the story is misleading.
At a town house hosted by Spanish-language Television Univision, an indecisive Mexican-born Latino Republican vote from Arizona, a battleground state, asked Trump in Spanish whether he really believed that newcomers were eating animals.
” I was really saying what was reported… And eating different things to that they’re not supposed to be. All I do is survey”, Trump replied during the celebration held in Miami. ” I was there, I’m going to be there and we’re going to get a look”.
Trump added that “newspapers” had likewise reported on the state, without naming any or providing any information.
Trump, who has not yet traveled to Springfield, has previously said he would carry mass deportations of Haitian immigrants from the Ohio area, perhaps though the majority of them are in the U. S. legitimately.
Since Trump began making up all the false charges against Haitians, the area has been threatened with explosive challenges.
In the last days before the Nov. 5 vote, Trump is increasingly resorting to lighter and more aggressive speech about illegal immigration, an concern that opinion polls show resonates with many voters, particularly Republicans.
He is vying for significant support from the expanding Latino people against Democrat Member Kamala Harris. Latino voters have commonly backed Democrats, but the Trump plan is hoping to win over more of them, especially people, on the back of economic anger.
Harris led Trump by eight percentage points- 47 % to 39 %- among Hispanic voters in Reuters/Ipsos polling conducted between Sept. 11 and Oct. 7. Last year, Harris held her own Latino city hall in Nevada, a hot-button state with a sizable Spanish community.
Farm employee concerns Trump
A Mexican-born California land employee who has been growing fruits and cauliflower for years posed another immigration issue to Trump at the city hall. If Trump’s plans to arrest millions of people who are illegally entering the United States, he asked who would perform challenging land work and how that would affect food prices.
Trump evaded the question, otherwise claiming that Latino and African Americans were losing their jobs as a result of illegal immigration. He made contradictory statements that Latin American nations were evicting people from mental hospitals and prison to bring people to the United States.
Trump has recently used dehumanizing language to refer to illegal immigrants entering the United States, calling them “animals” when discussing alleged criminal functions and saying they are “poisoning the heart of our state,” a word that has received criticism as racist and echoes Nazi language.
