Trump's Controversial Anti-Immigrant Comments Draw Comparisons to Hitler

Former President Donald Trump made controversial remarks at a rally in New Hampshire, stating that immigrants are "poisoning the blood of our country." President Joe Biden's campaign likened Trump's comments to those of Adolf Hitler, who used similar language in his manifesto. Trump repeated the use of "poisoning" in a post on his social media website. The Biden campaign criticized Trump's remarks, while Republican rival Chris Christie called them "disgusting" and criticized fellow Republican Nikki Haley for supporting Trump. Trump's allies in Congress are demanding new immigration policies before approving additional funding for Ukraine or Israel. This is not the first time Trump has used the term "blood poisoning" to criticize immigration.
