So, what is the truth here? Are migrants eating pets or not?

“Some Haitians have already decided to leave Springfield and Ohio altogether.”

Sounds like a win to me. The only problem will be for the communities where they settle next.

I don’t believe that most people would make death threats against those who may be eating domesticated animals. Upset and disgusted, for sure.

The truth is Trump has masterfully drawn attention to something they do not want to have known or addressed.

Well played, Donald. Well played.

Wow. The media has latched on to this like a dog with a bone. A cat with a mouse. A duck with a worm.

20,000 immigrants...legal or not....has to have a huge effect on a town the size of Springfield.

Trump may have stretched things a bit. I’ve never known Haitians to eat dogs.

Nothing about the negative effects of dropping 20k Haitians on a 40k town via open border policies. Oh no. No liberal slant here. Trump mentions reports of Haitians eating cats and all hell breaks loose. Did NYT bother to try to confirm the reports? No liberal bias here.

There are several reports of it happening, and I doubt they’d just abandon the practice once entering the United States illegally.

I wonder how these two New Yawk pixies at the slimes found out about all the misery in Springfield. The “media mafia” is saying that the Haitians and Springfielders are getting along famously and love one another. Now these clowns say they are leaving Springfield and even Ohio. These two morons are a couple of uninformed lying clowns.

They don’t need to eat them. They are practicing a voodoo sacrifice after which the animal is partially or in whole consumed.

It’s not because the have nothing to eat.

I consider myself informed about what is happening in this country politically, though I knew nothing about flying in thousands of Haitians to towns in red states until Trump mentioned the cat eating. Until the New York Times had some thing they felt they could attack Trump about, they never mentioned the whole situation . At first, I was unhappy that Trump gave them something with which to attack him, but then I realized that was the only way the media would ever address the problem.

Funny. They’re acting like he made it up out of whole cloth. He was repeating the news we all heard, and people that live there are still claiming it’s real. Who to believe...🤣
