Donald Trump promised, on Friday, September 13, “mass expulsions” in Springfield, the small Ohio town where he wrongly accused Haitian migrants of eating cats this week. “We will organize mass expulsions”he said at a press conference from his golf complexin the suburbs of Los Angeles (California).

“American children are at the mercy of barbaric criminals”he added, pretending to ignore that many of these migrants have a residence permit. “Kamala is going to turn America into a third world refugee camp. It’s already happening in a way,” he hammered home in an increasingly tense campaign for the White House.

Since Tuesday’s debate with his Democratic rival, the false information relayed by Donald Trump on migrants “cat eaters” has been widely hijacked and put to music on social networks, as shown in the video below.

The Republican candidate has placed immigration, a top concern among voters according to polls, at the heart of his new bid for the White House. Just as he did in 2016, when he campaigned on his proposed wall on the border with Mexico.
