Trump Faces Bipartisan Criticism Over Anti-Immigrant Remarks

Republicans and Democrats alike condemn former president's comments likening immigrants to 'poisoning the blood' of the U.S..

Former President Donald Trump's recent comments that immigrants are 'poisoning the blood of our country' have sparked backlash from both Democrats and Republicans.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, whose wife Elaine Chao is an immigrant, indirectly criticized Trump's comments.
Senators Susan Collins and Mike Rounds, both Republicans, openly criticized Trump's remarks, with Collins calling them 'deplorable' and Rounds labeling them 'unacceptable'.
Vice President Kamala Harris compared Trump's comments to the language of Adolf Hitler, a comparison also made by the Biden-Harris campaign.
Some Republicans, including Senator Lindsey Graham and Representative Nicole Malliotakis, defended Trump or dismissed the criticism.
