On Monday, former president Donald Trump sparked controversy once more by asserting that illegal immigrants are bringing "bad genes" into the country. The remarks, which were made by Trump during a radio interview with conservative presenter Hugh Hewitt, are the most recent in his string of remarks concerning immigration, which has frequently been charged with demonising immigrants. Trump was criticising Democratic opponent for the presidency, Vice President Kamala Harris, when he made the comments. He cited statistics from the government demonstrating that 13,000 immigrants had convictions for homicide but were not being held by federal immigration authorities. What if we let 13,000 people cross an open border, many of whom were murderers who killed several victims? Now, they are contentedly residing in the US, according to Trump. He continued, saying, "I think it's in their genes to be a murderer. Right now, there are a lot of harmful genes in our nation. It appears that the numbers Trump used are an inaccurate depiction of information provided by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in September. The figures span several decades, including years when Trump was president, and do not include persons detained in non-ICE facilities, like as state or local prisons. Critics denounced Trump's comments right away. Though he disagreed with the 13,000 murderer estimate, conservative writer Richard Hanania backed Trump's larger genetics and crime theory, urging him to take into account the low crime rates among immigrants. "Trump drops the 13,000 released murderers lie even here, and I don't normally defend his statements," Said Hanania, the president of the Centre for the Study of Partisanship and Ideology. Yet he is correct that a big portion of crime is inherited. He should merely consider the ramifications after learning about the low crime rate among immigrants. The statements are made while Trump and Harris continue to be in a close race leading up to the election in November. Immigration has been a major campaign theme for the 78-year-old president, who regularly paints illegal immigrants and even some legal ones as threats to public safety. During a rally last month, Trump referred to immigrants as “animals” who were out to “rape, pillage, thieve, plunder and kill,” and he demanded that Vice President Harris face legal action over President Joe Biden’s border policies. Additionally, he threatened them with deportation and made up accusations that Ohioan Haitians were eating neighbourhood pets. Trump has a history of making divisive remarks towards immigrants. He faced widespread criticism in December after equating immigration with Adolf Hitler's statements and calling immigrants "poisoning the blood of our country." Despite his provocative comments, Trump continues to remain competitive in the polls, with the election shaping up to be one of the most divisive in recent history.
