President Donald Trump told a packed crowd in Iowa on Sunday that Somalia has ruined Minnesota and that the United States does not want more of its people.
The president warned voters in other states, including Ohio, against allowing the same kind of concentrated migrant settlement.
“Somalia has ruined the State of Minnesota. We don’t want them,” Trump declared during a midterm rally two days before Election Day at Dubuque’s Five Flags Center.
