Biden's open border policy responsible for violent crimes in America, claims Trump after New Orleans attack

Trump's statements came after a pickup truck drove into a crowd, killing at least 15 people in New Orleans.

US President-elect Donald Trump blamed President Joe Biden's "Open Borders Policy" for the rise in violent crime in the country. According to Trump, Biden and his group of election-interfering "thugs" had caused lasting damage to the country.

"With the Biden “Open Border’s Policy” I said, many times during Rallies, and elsewhere, that Radical Islamic Terrorism, and other forms of violent crime, will become so bad in America that it will become hard to even imagine or believe. That time has come, only worse than ever imagined," Trump posted on X.

Trump's statements came after a pickup truck drove into a crowd, killing at least 15 people in New Orleans, and an explosion occurred outside the Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas on Wednesday.

Calling Biden  the "worst President in the history of America" and a "disaster", Trump said, "What he and his group of Election Interfering “thugs” have done to our Country will not soon be forgotten! MAGA."

In an earlier post on Wednesday, Trump wrote that the US is a disaster and has become a laughingstock worldwide. He claimed this was the result of open borders and weak, ineffective, and virtually nonexistent leadership. Trump alleged that the DOJ, FBI, and Democrat state and local prosecutors had failed to do their jobs, describing them as incompetent and corrupt.

“Our Country is a disaster, a laughing stock all over the World! This is what happens when you have OPEN BORDERS, with weak, ineffective, and virtually nonexistent leadership. The DOJ, FBI, and Democrat state and local prosecutors have not done their job. They are incompetent and corrupt, having spent all of their waking hours unlawfully attacking their political opponent, ME, rather than focusing on protecting Americans from the outside and inside violent SCUM that has infiltrated all aspects of our government, and our Nation itself. Democrats should be ashamed of themselves for allowing this to happen to our Country. The CIA must get involved, NOW, before it is too late. The USA is breaking down — A violent erosion of Safety, National Security, and Democracy is taking place all across our Nation," Trump wrote on the Truth Social platform.
