Former Department of Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson said Thursday that President Donald Trump’s inflammatory rhetoric has caused the decrease in illegal immigration on the U.S.-Mexico border.
Johnson argued on CNN’s “New Day” that Trump’s tone toward illegal immigrants has made those in Central America and Mexico afraid to enter the U.S., and the people would rather stay in their home countries instead of risking an illegal entrance.
“Through his rhetoric, he scared off a lot of women and children in Central America who’d rather stay in their desperate circumstances or just migrate to Mexico and stop there,” Johnson said. “But these are really desperate women and children, women with babies in their arms, who are trying to flee the poverty and violence in the countries they left.”Read the rest of the story HERE.
