During a rally, Donald Trump stated that Aurora, Colorado, has been conquered by Venezuelan gangs. Republican vice presidential nominee Mike Pence defended Trump’s claims despite pushback from the local mayor and news reports.
“I will rescue Aurora and every town that has been invaded and conquered. These towns have been conquered,” Trump said Friday, per“Explain that to your governor; he doesn’t have a clue they’ve been conquered. And we will put these vicious and bloodthirsty criminals in jail or kick them out of our country.”
“So, do you support Donald Trump making those claims that the Republican mayor says were grossly exaggerated and have hurt the city’s identity and sense of safety?” she asked. “I understand what you’re saying that some people left behind. But he’s making these statements that the mayor is flat-out disputing.”
When Vance tried to suggest that Trump heard concerns about the issue from people while “on the ground” at Friday’s rally, Raddatz immediately shut him down. “Only a handful of apartment complexes in America were taken over by Venezuelan gangs, and Donald Trump is the problem and not Kamala Harris’ open border?” Vance argued.has said rather than acknowledging that apartment complexes in the United States of America are being taken over by violent gangs,” he told the host.
