Former president also slams Harris as “lazy” for taking day off from campaign trail, and urges leakers of Israeli intel to be brought to justice.
Gaining momentum two weeks from Election Day, Donald Trump is laser focused on voters’ top priority of making America safe and affordable again. But after spending hours comforting families victimized by murder, rape and other border crimes, the former president told Just the News he also is open to creating a federal compensation fund for Americans harmed by illegal immigrants let into the country under President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.
The idea of a border crimes reparations fund like the one created for the victims of the Sept. 11, 2001 terror attacks has been floating around conservative circles for months, including in Congress where Rep. Virginia Foxx, R-N.C., even introduced the concept before it stalled.
Asked Tuesday whether he was open to implementing the concept if voters on Nov. 5 returned him to the White House, Trump answered without ambiguity: “I am.”
“It was talked about, and then I guess people shut it down,” Trump said during a wide-ranging interview with the "Just the News, No Noise" television show, recounting his many visits with families victimized by such crimes. “I've met so many of the families. They've been just decimated by these people that are allowed to come into our country. The murderers and drug dealers and the worst people are allowed to come into our country. And they're poisoning our country. … What Biden and Kamala have done to this country is unthinkable,” he said.

P
Make the lawmakers pay out of their pockets..or the citizens!!
Meaningless unless you can hold individuals and organizations liable (Mayourkas, Catholic Charities, etc).
Yeah..and the way we collect it is by either seizing property or assets in the US from the Country from which the non citizen criminal comes from...or simply deducting it from the foreign aid to that country..
Make Harris and VP JaBiden be the sole contributors to the fund
I think the cost of reparations to white victims of black crime would be an eye opener.
yes
I agree with Trump, but instead of us having to pay for it, make organizations and corporations who make a BIG profit off of cheap labor make them pay the consequences of this..and make Mayorkis, Blinken and the rest of the scumbags who allowed all of these illegals into this country for VOTES pay for what they did too
A quite reasonable proposal given that it’s been the federal government that’s allowed the dangerous, unvetted flood of invaders in and even facilitated, paid them
However. Since all that’s been an illegal policy and therefore conducted by criminals , let’s get as much of the actual $$ out of the criminal politicians first before using taxpayer funds. The criminals should pay for the harms they’ve caused
Being evil should include facing personal consequences for evil acts.
I think it’s a very good idea, myself. But not from money that would be used for something here in the US.
Rather, whatever the nationality of the perpetrator who came here and committed the crime against an American, reparations if warranted, would be paid for by a DIRECT DEDUCTION from any foreign aid that particular country gets from the US. How about that?
The current administration is responsible. They opened the border and got Americans hurt and killed.
Trump seems to be the only politician on the Republican side willing to go on offense. Make the Dims support their policies/actions. Make them waste time money and goodwill. Never going on offense is stupid but they don’t call them the stupid party for nothing.
. . . to be subsidized by Commie Rats individually who foisted this garbage on the country!!!
Ah yes. Even more deficit spending. Excellent.
Does this include 18th Street and MS-13 gang members killed by Tren de Aragua gang members? How about when Sinaloa guys hijack a Jalisco drug delivery?
Would this fund be similar to the one which pays victims of bad acts by Representatives of Congress in secrecy?
Trump said Mexico will pay for it.
