Donald Trump’s lies about Aurora have already been debunked. Yet, he persists in telling them in the hope that his dark and fearful version of our country will win him another presidential election…

Republican presidential nominee former President Donald Trump dances after finishing his remarks at a campaign rally at Ed Fry Arena in Indiana, Pa., Monday, Sept. 23, 2024. Former President Donald Trump invited himself to Aurora to demonize immigrants and continue what he does best — divide us.again. Yet, he persists in telling them in the hope that his dark and fearful version of our country will win him another presidential election.

But Trump’s contempt for immigrants is so visceral and complete that he cannot possibly deliver that outcome — he has lost sight of even the economic benefits of immigration, much less its cultural significance. Since then, Americans have been subjected to an endless carousel of politicians using our broken immigration system to bludgeon the other side — most recently, President Trump, himself, torpedoed a bipartisan bill to address our border.

President Trump’s empty rhetoric and dog whistles will never counter China’s growing influence or meaningfully stem migration to our southern border. Instead, we need to grow our economy in partnership with the economies of Latin America and the Caribbean.– that will establish and invest in a permanent trade partnership with Western Hemisphere democracies to bring jobs, industries, and critical supply chains back to our hemisphere from China and elsewhere, and reduce corruption.

President Trump’s decision to descend on Aurora and play immigration politics is reason enough he should never be president again. Fortunately, Vice President Kamala Harris understands that we do not have to choose between our heritage as a nation of immigrants and our commitment to the rule of law.
