Trump lied about Haitian immigrants. Now he wants to deport them

Donald Trump has not only vilified Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, falsely claiming they were stealing and eating pets, but now he’s also threatening to kick them out of the country.

In an interview with NewsNation on Wednesday, Trump said he would end revoke the immigrants’ Temporary Protected Status, which legally allows them to temporarily live and work in the United States while their home country remains torn apart by conflict.

“Absolutely, I’d revoke it,” he said.

“It has nothing to do with Haiti or anything else,” he added. “You have to remove the people, and you have to bring them back to their own country.”
