Former president Donald Trump made this claim in a radio interview Thursday.
Men from China line up to be processed by border agents in Boulevard, Calif., in December. We are by now largely inured to Donald Trump’s more extreme observations about the world, having spent nearly nine years immersed in them. This is particularly true when he’s discussing the U.S.-Mexico border, the subject of his first exaggerations and fearmongering back when he announced his 2016 candidacy and an acute point of commentary as the 2024 contest approaches.
It is true that the number of immigrants from China that have arrived at the southern border is up since Trump’s last year in office — a year in which immigration was exceptionally low thanks to thepandemic. But there is no reason to think that they are coming to the United States to “build an army.”
He went on for a bit, with Ingraham marveling at his observations. Then he offered that we did know some things about those arriving.
