Attendees at Brother Jeff's Cultural Cafe in Aurora gathered to watch the presidential debate between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris. Trump mentioned Aurora during the debate, referencing recent national headlines about the city.
The shout-out wasn't as bad as Springfield's, but it likely won't be the last time the former president brings up immigrant gangs in Aurora .
During his last public speech and the debate, Trump mentioned or referenced Aurora after swirls of rumors claiming Venezuelan gangs have taken over apartment complexes there as a result of Denver's lax and generous migrant policies. Anderson said before the debate that he expected Trump to mention Aurora, adding that it would be"proof that messaging by Aurora City Councilwoman Danielle Jurinsky and Mayor Mike Coffman was effective." He called out Jurinsky for having repeated the claim of Venezuelan gang takeovers on national TV, social media and at council meetings.
In a shared statement Wednesday, September 11, Coffman and Jurinsky said they wanted to"clear the record" of claims that some apartment complexes in Aurora have been"taken over" by Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua .
