Former President Donald Trump said Democrats would spend more time at the Democratic National Convention talking about him than about the issues.
Former President Donald Trump is scheduled to speak at 3 p.m. EDT during his visit to the southern border. Watch his remarks in the player above.
“It’s like they’re having a party. They don’t mention the border. They just make up lies about me,” the Republican presidential candidate complained when he called “Fox & Friends” on Thursday morning.
Trump will visit the southern border in Cochise County, Arizona, on Thursday and continue to criticize the Biden administration’s border policies.
He spent the week campaigning in the battleground states.
Democrats said Wednesday night they would take a leadership role on the U.S.-Mexico border and work toward political solutions rather than simply demonizing immigrants and trying to use the issue as a political motive for their voter base.
Texas Rep. Veronica Escobar of the border city of El Paso said: “Forget what you hear on the news, that’s where I’m from. … When it comes to the border, listen to me when I say: You know nothing, Donald Trump.”
