Appearing for an interview on Fox News’s “Justice with Judge Jeanine” on Saturday, Lara Trump, urged Americans living at the southern border to “arm up and get guns and be ready,” in response to the influx of migrants arriving at the U.S. border.
“I don’t know what you tell the people that live at the southern border. I guess they better arm up and get guns and be ready, and maybe they’re gonna have to take matters into their own hands,” the daughter-in-law of former President Trump told host Jeanine Pirro.
“People should never make this dangerous journey here. It’s bad for Americans. It’s bad for the migrants. It’s bad all around,” she added, according to Mediate.
Trump’s comments come on the heels of Vice President Kamala Harris’ trip to Guatemala and Mexico, which focused on the border.
Biden in March tapped Harris to lead the administration’s efforts to control the flow of migrants seeking entry to the U.S. at the southern border.
