Former President Trump sat down with Judge Jeanine Pirro for an exclusive interview to be broadcast Saturday at 9pm on Fox Justice’s “Justice with Judge Jeanine”
“A lot of people want me to visit the border,” Trump told Pyrrhus.
In the interview, Trump says he will likely visit the southern border in the coming weeks.
Trump called Biden’s withdrawal from the “Stay in Mexico” policy or the Migrant Protection Protocol a “very bad decision.”
The Trump administration established and expanded the MPP during the 2019 migrant crisis as part of a broader agreement with Mexico, and hailed it as a key foundation in its efforts to end capture and release, which allowed the release of migrants inside the US
Instead, MPP keeps immigrants in Mexico while they wait for their asylum hearings. Proponents say the policy ended with a key factor that brought migrants north, while critics say it is cruel and endangers migrants by leaving them in Mexico.
“Thousands and thousands of people are approaching right now as we speak. And you will have millions of people pouring into our country. And it will destroy our country, “Trump told Pyrrhus.
Trump said the first thing Biden should do is recreate the “Stay in Mexico” policy and complete the border wall.
Trump said Mexico is now “very angry with us.” “We will no longer get along with Mexico. You have a great president of Mexico who was great to me, ”Trump said.
President Biden has said Mexico refuses to host all the families the U.S. is trying to evict after trying to cross the southern border. Biden said his administration is in talks with Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador on the matter.
“Some families do not go back because Mexico refuses to recover them. Some, not all, “the president said at his first news conference Thursday.
“We are in negotiations with Mexico. That will change. Everyone should go back, ”he continued.
Last week, Trump accused Biden of causing “death and human tragedy” by undoing some of his border policies, which Biden had considered inhumane.
“We proudly handed over to the Biden Administration the safest border in history,” the statement says. ”All they had to do was keep this system running smoothly on autopilot. Instead, within a few weeks, the Biden Administration has turned a national triumph into a national disaster. They are well above their heads and catch water quickly. “
Republicans have been urging President Biden to visit the border to experience first-hand the overflowing facilities amid a border wave. After visiting the border, Sen. Mike Braun, R-Ind., Wrote a letter to the president imploring him to make a trip south.
“The crisis surrounding this wave makes it a moral imperative that you see first hand what is happening, and not the sanitized version of the border tour conducted by some of my colleagues in Congress,” Braun wrote. “Having personally gone this week, I can declare that this is an inhuman, unsustainable and dangerous situation.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) facilities have been operating far beyond capacity in the midst of a growing worrying border crossing. The agency announced that it had encountered more than 100,000 migrants at the border in February, while the number of detained migrant children has also increased dramatically.
