Trump invokes 'Biden migrant crime' in debate border clash

Former President Donald Trump went on the offensive in his first debate with President Joe Biden and attempted to connect the Democratic administration’s border policies directly to a wave of headlines on crime committed by illegal immigrants.

“We are living right now in a rat’s nest. They’re killing our people in New York, in California, and every state in the union because we don’t have borders anymore. Every state is now a border,” Trump said during the CNN presidential debate Thursday night in Atlanta. “Because of his ridiculous, insane, and very stupid policies, people are coming in and they’re killing our citizens at a level that we’ve never seen. We call it migrant crime. I call it Biden migrant crime.”
