Trump says he will visit Springfield, Ohio, 'in the next two weeks'
NBC News ^ | Sep 18, 2024 | Megan Lebowitz

Posted on 09/18/2024 6:51:20 PM PDT by McGruff

Former President Donald Trump said at a rally Wednesday that he would travel to Springfield, Ohio, the focal point of unsubstantiated claims targeting Haitian migrants, "in the next two weeks."

"I’m going to go there in the next two weeks. I’m going to Springfield, and I’m going to Aurora" in Colorado, Trump said at a rally in Uniondale, New York.

Trump has pushed baseless claims that Haitian migrants in the beleaguered Ohio city are eating pets, which have repeatedly been debunked. His running mate, Sen. JD Vance of Ohio, and the ticket's allies have also spread the lie.

TRUMP: “I’m going to Springfield and I’m going to Aurora.”

“You may never see me again, but that’s OK, gotta do what I gotta do.”

“’What happened to Trump?! Well, he never got outta Springfield.’” 🤣🤣

If anyone offers to treat him to dinner at a Haitian restaurant, I hope he says “I’ll pass.”

NBC News, reporting unsubstantiated claims of being a news network, is pushing baseless claims against President Trump and his planned trip to Springfield, Ohio. All reporting by NBC News has been repeatedly debunked. Their lies are resulting in a massive decline of viewers, and the network is failing.

Many years ago my sister-in-law confronted a woman in her neighborhood who looked suspicious. She had a big cloth bag strung across her back. It was moving around and kitty like wailing sounds were coming from it. My sister-in-law confronted her; The woman acted like she didn’t understand her... My S.I.L grabbed that bag and opened it. A half dozen terrified cats scattered and ran off.

The neighborhood had been losing a lot of pets. People thought that coyotes were getting them; but it turned out that it was recent arrivals.

beleaguered Ohio city 

 

What's so beleagured about it? Could it be the 20,000 Haitians that have invaded this small city?

Consider: in 2010 the population of Springfield was about 62,000.

Since then some 20,000 Haitians have been moved in.

Yet today the population of Springfield is about 58,000.

So where did the 22,000 American citizens go?

My guess is they all went to Port au Prince to balance things out.

Actually, I am sort of afraid of him going to Springfield, OH and Aurora, CO. Seems like if the dems are still set on having him assassinated, they could easily find willing participants in both locations.

‘”Trump has pushed baseless claims that Haitian migrants in the beleaguered Ohio city are eating pets, which have repeatedly been debunked. His running mate, Sen. JD Vance of Ohio, and the ticket’s allies have also spread the lie.”

Objective journalism. What kind of credibility can they have when they use words like “spread the lie”.

No, they have not been debunked.

The left refuses to deal with them and therefore are not verifying whether it's happening or not.

Which tells me it is and they know it.
