Statements by Donald J. Trump, 45th President of the United States of America

Mar-a-Lago, FL—  President Donald J. Trump slammed Joe Biden’s erasure of America’s borders as Title 42 is set to expire tonight, which will lead to an unprecedented surge of illegals crossing into the United States.

 

“With today's termination of the final remnants of Title 42, Joe Biden has officially abolished what remained of America's borders and turned the United States into a dumping ground for illegal aliens from all over the world,” President Trump said. “On day one of my new administration, I will end this travesty and restore the sovereign borders of the United States of America. We will immediately resume expedited removals of people that are crossing illegally, our border.”

 

As an estimated tens of thousands of foreign nationals from across the world begin to amass on America’s southern border, Joe Biden will soon turn the United States into a third world country.

President Trump promised to take swift action to restore America’s sovereignty, including the use all necessary federal, state, local and military resources to begin the largest domestic deportation effort in American history.

 

The U.S. Border Patrol has  reported three times as many illegal border crossings  under Joe Biden than took place under President Trump. The Biden administration continues to break records for historic illegal border crossings, with  over 6.3 million illegal crossings  since taking office, more than the populations of Los Angeles and Houston combined.

 

On Joe Biden’s watch, record amounts of deadly fentanyl have entered the country through ports of entry and illegal border crossings.

 

Last year alone, agents seized  enough fentanyl to kill 379 million people —more than the entire population of the United States.

 

President Trump has pledged to shut down Biden’s border disaster. He will again end catch-and-release, restore Remain in Mexico, and eliminate asylum fraud.

 

President Trump’s plan to secure the border includes a commitment to  declare war and defeat the cartels , just as he did with ISIS.

 

In addition to restoring strong border security, President Trump will deploy all necessary military assets, including the U.S. Navy to impose a full naval embargo on the cartels.

 

President Trump has also committed to direct the Department of Defense to make appropriate use of special forces, cyber warfare, and other overt and covert actions to inflict maximum damage on cartel leadership, infrastructure, and operations.

 

President Trump has pledged to designate the dangerous cartels as foreign terrorist organizations, to curb their access to global financial systems, and will work with Congress to pass legislation that ensures drug smugglers and human traffickers receive the death penalty. 

 

TRANSCRIPT

 

With today's termination of the final remnants of Title 42, Joe Biden has officially abolished what remained of America's borders and turned the United States into a dumping ground for illegal aliens from all over the world. 

 

We've become a third world nation. At this very moment, illegal aliens are lined up by the tens of thousands, ready to break into our country, knowing that even if they are caught, Joe Biden will order them immediately released into American communities and many of these people are very dangerous. 

 

Under Biden, our border is gone, our sovereignty is gone. Our national security is gone. And we are quickly becoming that third world nation that I've been talking about for so long. It's happening to us if you can believe that. The United States of America is now a third world nation. 

 

On day one of my new administration, I will end this travesty and restore the sovereign borders of the United States of America. We will immediately resume expedited removals of people that are crossing illegally, our border. 

 

And following the model of President Eisenhower, we will use all necessary federal, state, local and military resources to begin the largest domestic deportation effort in American history to send the border violators back to their home countries, and we will do that immediately. This invasion will not stand. 

 

Our country is being invaded. Our country is being destroyed by very, very stupid people. These are stupid people. We have to get them out. We have to take back the White House. 

 

Thank you very much.
