“They’re poisoning the blood of our country,” the former president said. “They’ve poisoned mental institutions and prisons all over the world. Not just in South America, not just the three or four countries that we think about, but all over the world they’re coming into our country from Africa, from Asia.”

Part XXIV on why Trump is spanking DeSantis. No other candidate would use this kind of visceral rhetorical firepower.

It's nonsensical. I can accept poisoning the blood, but I don't see why illegals do that any more than other immigrants.

I don't know if this is what he was thinking, but if he articulated it this way it would be correct: Illegal immigrants have a tendency to be the people that would be rejected at a port of entry. So they are worse, on average. Much more likely to be criminals since that's grounds for getting denied entry.
