Former President Donald Trump shredded his opponent’s handling of the southern border during a rally in Tempe, Arizona on Thursday.
He accused Vice President Kamala Harris of allowing an “invasion of criminal migrants,” likening America to “a garbage can for the world.”

“When Kamala came in, she deliberately dismantled our border and threw open the gates. She threw them open, the gates to an invasion of criminal migrants from prisons and jails, from insane asylums and mental institutions from all over the world, from Venezuela to the Congo in Africa,” he charged.
“We’re a dumping ground. We’re like a garbage can for the world. That’s what’s happened,” the former president continued. “That’s what’s happened to our– we’re like a garbage can. You know, it’s the first time I ever said that. And every time I come up and talk about what they’ve done to our country, I get angrier and angrier. First time I’ve ever said ‘garbage can.’ But you know what? It’s a very accurate description.”
This line greatly upset some liberals on X: (** Language Warning)
Then fucking LEAVE.

We weren’t a garbage can until the corrupt GOP greedy mother f’ers took power. It started with Reagan and Trump sealed the deal. The GOP is trying to destroy America.

Whomever feels that way is welcome to leave? Isn’t that what the right tells everyone?

Make no mistake, he also regards Americans who don’t support him (& even those who do) as garbage.
All sane Americans must vote Harris/Walz & ensure he loses, faces justice he has so far eluded, & is given jail for the rest of his nasty, spiteful, miserable life.— ellie (@slamellie) October 25, 2024
Remember how they dragged Michelle Obama through the mud when she said “For the first time in my adult life I’m really proud of my country”? They wanted to kill her. They cheer for this. It’s so wild.
