Harris formally accepted the Democratic presidential nomination at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago on Thursday night. Trump told reporters he did so after a “coup” to oust President Joe Biden.
“For nearly four years, Comrade Kamala has allowed at least 20 million people into our country, all illegal immigrants, including millions of unvetted fighting-age men from over 158 countries,” Trump said. Center Square reports that the number of illegal border crossers is more than 12.5 million.
Thanks to Biden-Harris policy“Every week, Border Patrol agents are forced to release tens of thousands of illegal immigrants from custody. These are the most violent criminals we have ever seen. Every day, we hear news of innocent Americans being tortured, raped, murdered and massacred by illegal immigrants released into our country by Kamala Harris.”
Trump described the criminals who have been released into the country and the types of crimes they committed in their home countries and in the United States. Peruvian gang leader Wanted on 23 counts of murder: “An illegal immigrant who approached two 13-year-old girls in broad daylight in New York City with a machete, lured them into the woods, bound their wrists and repeatedly raped them.”
“These immigrants were just arrested in Coney Island for throwing a 46-year-old woman to the ground, holding a knife to her throat and raping her,” he said. “One of them had previously been arrested for raping another woman, but instead of being deported he was released into our country and told to enjoy life.”
In Fort Wayne, Indiana, “a woman who had asked two illegal immigrants for a ride home was kidnapped, held down, raped and driven around in a car while the illegals discussed a plan to kill her. They didn’t want any witnesses,” Trump said. The woman escaped by throwing herself from a moving car.
Trump also spoke about crimes in the Bronx that he said were committed by “illegal immigrants that Kamala has let loose on our country.” [who] The man approached the 36-year-old woman under the pretense of asking for directions, then choked her, pushed her onto a park bench and publicly raped her. “He wasn’t trying to rape me, he was trying to kill me,” she said.

Regarding the murder of Laken Riley, a nursing student at the University of Georgia, Trump said, “She was assaulted, beaten and brutally murdered. Kamala Harris allowed the illegal immigrant animal that killed Laken into the country. This monster was in the custody of the Border Patrol. They didn’t want to release him, but Kamala’s policies allowed him free reign to murder, and that’s what he did.”
“Kamala let this bloodthirsty killer get away with murdering our beautiful Laken.”
Trump also told “the heartbreaking story of Rachel Moran,” whose family was present at the press conference to speak, who was “brutally raped and murdered by an illegal immigrant who was allowed into the United States by Kamala Harris and her foolish policies. The brutal individual who committed this heinous crime first murdered another woman in El Salvador before crossing the open border.” Commit A home invasion in Los Angeles.
“Biden-Harris has brought a terrible plague of immigration crime to our country, destroying the lives of so many families and taking the lives of so many fine young people,” Trump said.
“We can’t allow this to happen to anyone else. We can’t let what you’re going through happen to another family,” he told Angel’s family, who were with him. Houston’s 12-year-old murder victim Jocelyn Nungareyi’s mother supported Trump, who said the victims’ lives had been taken “for absolutely no reason at all by very cold-hearted criminals who have flooded our country.”
Trump rejected claims by some Democrats and media outlets that illegal aliens “don’t commit crimes like the people who live here.”
