Former U.S. President Donald Trump has proposed the death penalty for immigrants convicted of killing American citizens or law enforcement officers, intensifying his hardline stance on immigration ahead of a potential return to the White House.
Speaking to supporters in Aurora, Colorado, on Friday, Trump claimed that the city has been overrun by criminal gangs due to what he called lax border policies under President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.
Trump accused Harris of allowing an “army of illegal alien gang members” to settle in the U.S., particularly in Aurora, where an influx of around 40,000 Venezuelan immigrants since 2022 has sparked concerns about rising crime.
Trump vowed to launch “Operation Aurora” to expel foreign gangs, promising the “largest deportation operation in American history” if re-elected. The former president’s comments come as immigration remains a contentious issue in his campaign, with more than 10.6 million immigrants entering the country since Biden took office, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection data.
“I’m hereby calling for the death penalty for any migrant that kills an American citizen or a law enforcement officer.”

Trump was calling for the death penalty for anti-semitics too
Only problem is he doesn’t understand what he is saying
And is actually advocating purging the jews the religion of whom he converted to – Judaism
Trump is a judas goat and very bad proselyte crisis actor
All will be divulged if he makes it that far
Sounds fair enough if convicted with overwhelming evidence as we know from past cases the police have falsified evidence.
