TheAltWorld Trump Scapegoats Migrants While Backing Policies That Displace Them
Ben Becker, the Editor-in-Chief of BreakThrough News discusses how Trump and Harris fueled the anti-immigrant, anti-worker hysteria that propelled the politics of the US-Mexico into front and center of the 2024 election.
Becker demystifies Trump’s many false, ahistorical claims about immigration policy, particularly how US regime change, sanctions, and interventions have fueled migration surges. Becker explains, “The biggest migratory surges of the last 10 years– whether it be from Syria, Afghanistan, Venezuela or Cuba” bear the “direct imprint of US foreign policy, intervention, sanctions, & blockades making lives miserable for people.”
Trump scapegoats migrants but backs the U.S. interventionist policies fueling the crisis in the first place says, BT’s @benbecker_
“Rubio & Trump say ‘build the wall’, but they’re the ones creating the migration ‘crisis.’”
