Trump said immigrants are āpoisoning the bloodā of America. Tommy Tuberville thinks the former president is too soft
Alabama Senator Tommy Tuberville expressed his disappointment on Tuesday that Donald Trumpās comments accusing migrants of āpoisoning the blood of our countryā werenāt even more xenophobic.
During a rally in New Hampshire on Saturday, Trump told a crowd of supporters that migrants are āpoisoning the blood of our country ā¦ Thatās what theyāve done. Theyāve poisoned mental institutions and prisons all over the world ā not just in South America, not just the three or four countries that we think about, but all over the world. Theyāre coming into our country, from Africa, from Asia ā all over the world. Theyāre pouring into our country.ā
While President Joe Bidenās campaign pointed out similarities between Trumpās comments and the writings of Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler, Republicans were quick to excuse the screed. Tuberville took things a step further by complaining to reporters that Trumpās comments werenāt harsh enough.
This is the best summary I could come up with:

While President Joe Bidenās campaign pointed out similarities between Trumpās comments and the writings of Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler, Republicans were quick to excuse the screed.
Trump himself has promised a harsh crackdown on immigrants should he retake the presidency in 2024, one that includes mass deportations and a network of migrant detainment camps.
In October of last year, Tuberville drew widespread criticism after delivering a racist, anti-Black screed during a Trump rally in Nevada.
In November, the Alabama senator claimed that the Biden administrationās border policies would result in āa 9/11 attack every few weeks if we donāt watch it.ā
āI call them Americans.ā During the same interview, Tuberville accused the Biden administration of ādestroyingā the U.S. military by working to remove individuals affiliated with extremist movements from the armed services.
