WASHINGTON, DC: Donald Trump has made yet another offensive remark on migrants as he attacked Vice President Kamala Harris over border policies.

On Monday, October 7, the former president appeared on ‘The Hugh Hewitt Show’ and called the migrants “bad genes.”

“When you look at the things that she proposes, they’re so far off she has no clue. How about allowing people to come to an open border, 13,000 of which were murderers,” he said, before adding, “Many of them murdered far more than one person, and they’re now happily living in the United States.”

Trump went on to explain, “You know, now a murderer, I believe this, it’s in their genes. And we got a lot of bad genes in our country right now. They left, they had 425,000 people come into our country that shouldn’t be here, that are criminals.”

Donald Trump continues to attack Kamala Harris

Recently, Donald Trump called out Kamala Harris and claimed she should be “impeached and prosecuted” over her border policies which have led to crimes by migrants, according to NBC News.

In 2020, Trump made a comment about “good genes” during a rally. “You have good genes. You know that, right? You have good genes. A lot of it is about the genes, isn’t it, don’t you believe? The racehorse theory. You think we’re so different? You have good genes in Minnesota,” he said.

Internet furious over Donald Trump's 'bad genes' attack on migrants

Netizens have slammed Donald Trump over his disparaging comment on migrants in the country. A few trolled the former president and hit back at him by questioning his own heredity.

A person commented on X, "This is fascism. Giving someone a platform for this is reprehensible."

"It's weird. He said it in English, but I heard it in German," another person joked.

"He's been hittin' the Mein Kampf again, hasn't he?" an individual slammed Trump.

One user wrote, "The worst genes of all are in the Trump and Musk families.

"The KKK thought the same about black people during Jim Crow and beyond," another suggested.

A person poked fun at Trump saying, "I would pay big money if someone asked trunk to spell genes. I’d be willing to bet the old blob of lies spells it J E A N S."

"Fascism is as fascism does. Don is obsessed with movies, now he's on about Minority Report with real life consequences," another opined.
