Trump says U.S. has 'worst border in the history of the world' under Biden

Fox News

Former President Donald Trump railed against the “chaos” at the southern border during a Fox News town hall Wednesday.

“They have chaos at the border,” Trump told a group of voters in Iowa. “The border is a disaster, the worst border in history. I think the worst border in the history of the world. We had the best border in the history of our country. We never had a border like that.”

The former president has firmly opposed President Joe Biden’s handling of the southern border, vowing to “carry out the largest domestic deportation operation in American history.”

Trump has blamed the Biden administration for the "nation-wrecking catastrophe on our southern border," after several million illegal migrants were reported at the southern border since 2021."Under my leadership, we had the most secure border in U.S. history. Now, we have the worst border in the history of the world," Trump said while delivering a speech in Dubuque, Iowa.

The GOP frontrunner said that if elected, his second term would begin by "immediately" terminating "every open borders policy of the Biden administration."

In September, Trump announced his plans to carry out "the largest domestic deportation operation in American history" if he is elected to a second term.

Additionally, he plans to "invoke the Alien Enemies Act to remove all known or suspected Gang Members, drug dealers, or Cartel Members from the United States"—an effort he says will end the "scourge of illegal alien gang violence once and for all."
