Trump says the American people are living in a 'rats nest' because of illegal immigration

Presumptive GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump said Thursday that America is a "rats nest" because of rampant illegal immigration.

"We are living right now in a rat's nest," Trump said. "They're killing our people in New York and California and every state in the union, because we don't have borders."

Closing the southern border and cracking down on illegal immigration was two of the main issues Trump ran on in 2016.

Trump also referenced the three girls that had allegedly been killed by three illegal immigrants: Laken Riley, Rachel Morin, and Jocelyn Nungaray.

"We call it migrant crime. I call it Biden migrant crime," Trump said.

He later added that illegal immigration is turning America into an "uncivilized country."
