Trump Threatened in Arizona

Former President Donald Trump held a press conference at the Arizona-Mexico border on Thursday, outlining his plans for immigration reform if he wins the upcoming election. Trump pledged to impose the death penalty on sex traffickers and implement strict sentencing for illegal alien criminals, including a 10-year minimum for human smuggling and life sentences for child trafficking. He criticized the current border policies under President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, claiming they have led to a significant increase in illegal immigration. During his visit, Trump was accompanied by grieving mothers of victims killed by illegal immigrants, as well as local law enforcement officials. He emphasized the need for stronger border security, stating that under the Biden-Harris administration, encounters with illegal aliens have surged to unprecedented levels. Trump referred to Harris as a "Marxist" and asserted that she would not effectively address border issues, contrasting her approach with his own administration's efforts. The event took place amid heightened security concerns following a manhunt for a suspect who allegedly threatened Trump's life. Authorities arrested Ronald Lee Syvrud, who had outstanding warrants and was sought for making threats against the former president. Trump acknowledged the dangers of his campaign events but insisted on continuing his work. As Trump campaigned in battleground states, he faced criticism from Democrats, who accused him of using immigration issues to rally his base. Despite this, Trump maintained his focus on border security and immigration reform, asserting that his policies would restore safety and order in the country.
