US: Trump to appear in town where he claims immigrant gangs have “taken over”
Donald Trump will visit a small town in Colorado today where, he denounces, “armed immigrant gangs have taken over”.
Aurora has been at the center of the Republican presidential candidate’s campaign after the release of a video, widely reproduced by Trump supporters, showing armed Latinos breaking into apartments in a residential building in the city.
The owner of the building has cited the presence of a gang of Venezuelans as the reason for preventing work from taking place.
The billionaire candidate and his supporters have exploited the story to portray Aurora as a city living under the terror of armed illegal immigrant gangs such as Tren de Aragua.
“Getting them out of there is going to be a bloody story,” Trump said during campaigning in September. “It’s not going to be easy, but we’re going to get it done.”
The mayor of the city Mike Coffman, responded that this grim portrait of Aurora is far-fetched. “The problems referred to some specific buildings are not about the city as a whole,” he added.
In the statement announcing his campaign rally, Trump says he will go to a “war zone.”
Trump often accuses illegal immigrants of “poisoning” the blood of the US. At every campaign rally Trump presents the grim picture of the US, with record numbers of illegal immigrants having entered the country during the presidencies of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, causing a crime wave.
“We are going to proceed with the largest deportation in the history of our country. And we’re going to start in Springfield and Aurora,” the Republican stressed in mid-September from Los Angeles.
After Aurora, Trump will visit one of the contested states that will decide the outcome of the election. In Nevada, where he will attend a campaign event in Reno. On Sunday, he’ll be in Arizona before returning to California, a Democratic stronghold.
