Trump Just Posted Something So Cruel and Disturbing on Truth Social People Can’t Believe It’s Real

It’s more than plain that Donald Trump is a disgusting racist. He certainly was as president, so why should he be any different now?

In a sickening Truth Social post, Trump joked that alligators could be used to deter migrants from crossing into the U.S. southern border, Mediaite reports. He posted a photo of gators crowding together on a riverbank and baring their teeth. He added the captions “New Border Security,” “Will Work For Food,” and “Problem solved!!”

Trump’s tasteless suggestion comes during a time when border crossings are surging.

“These border numbers are getting astronomically high and are fast approaching the all-time record numbers we saw in May,” posted Fox News’ Bill Melugin on X Tuesday. “September numbers are on track to potentially set a new all-time record, & DHS still hasn’t released August numbers, which will be 230,00 — highest of 2023.

The morning before, Melugin observed that “one of the largest mass illegal crossings we have ever seen took place in Eagle Pass, TX,” and Border Patrol told him that “over 2,200 people crossed” overnight.

Just before Trump made his dumb post on Wednesday, Melugin described the situation in Eagle Pass as “a total free-for-all.”

“Mass illegal crossing taking place for over an hour and a half. Almost 2 years to the day we saw 15,000+ Haitians under the bridge in Del Rio, we now have thousands of predominantly Venezuelans gathering under Eagle Pass bridge,” he added.

Trump, of course, tried and failed to complete the border wall along the southern border. This was one of his biggest promises made during his 2016 campaign. It was just one of his many failures, but it’s just as well that this one failed because it would have impacted rare and endangered wildlife.

New York Times reporters Michael Shear and Julie Hirschfield Davis also noted in their 2019 book Border Wars: Inside Trump’s Assault on Immigration that this isn’t the first time Trump has raised the idea of using alligators at the border. They write that Trump “talked about fortifying a border wall with a water-filled trench, stocked with snakes or alligators, prompting aides to seek a cost estimate. He wanted the wall electrified, with spikes on top that could pierce human flesh.”

Y’know, most immigrants are usually thin. Because they are starving. Now, Trump, on the other hand, has plenty of fat, despite what his Georgia Fulton County Court information says.

Just saying.

People on Twitter were disgusted:
