President Donald Trump is now warning the people of France that their far-left immigration policies are destroying their “once great country.”
“Close your Borders and take control, before it is too late!” - President DONALD J. TRUMP https://t.co/6vXWkZwYVJ

“Close your borders and take control, before it’s too late,” Trump urged on social media over the weekend.
Vice President JD Vance echoed the sentiment, warning Americans that, should Democrats retake power, the situation in France could quickly become a reality in the United States.
Western liberals imported the third world into France and other countries in the name of diversity and compassion. They ignored fundamental questions of assimilation and compatibility. They were told it would lead to this and they didn't listen. I pray that France, a beautiful country of amazing people, will stop this madness before more of its landmarks burn. And I hope Americans are paying attention. This is the future congressional Democrats seek for your country.

Video from across France has shown large mobs of African migrants and communists taking to the streets to loot, battle with police, and destroy historic landmarks, all as liberal activists attempt to paint the riots as “student protests.”
In a very real sense, it's impossible to produce satire of dystopian fiction, because reality simply outpaces anything we can imagine. https://t.co/yKKm3jpDBu
