Former President Donald Trump claimed Saturday that the Biden administration was destroying the country and all the immigration achievements he’d made during his time as commander-in-chief.

“If he would have done nothing, we would have had right now the strongest border in history,” Trump said of his successor who reversed many aspects of the immigration programs he had implemented including the “remain in Mexico” policy.

“We had the strongest border in the history of our country. Very few people crossing, drugs were way down, human trafficking was almost stopped.”

  • “You take a look at what’s happening now and let me tell you: They’re letting people from prisons. They’re opening their prisons. Their prisoners are coming in, their murderers, their drug addicts, and drug dealers, by the way.”

    He added: “And the human traffickers are coming in. they’re letting them in. they want them in. they don’t want them in their country, so they’re saying, ‘send them to the USA.”

    Trump boasted that he had “everything worked out with” Central American countries including Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, and Mexico.

    “And he ended that,” he said. “It’s just crazy what they did.”
