“Trump Shrugs Off Bomb Threats Triggered by His Own Debunked Conspiracy Theory—You Won’t Believe His Response!”

After former President Donald Trump promised “mass deportations” starting with Springfield, Ohio, he dismissed a reporter’s question about the bomb threats that have occurred as a result of the ex-president’s continued repetition of a debunked conspiracy theory.

Trump held a press conference on Friday while he was in Rancho Palos Verdes, California during which he let loose many of his most repeated lies and falsehoods. When faced with a question from a reporter about the consequences of his baseless claim that Haitian immigrants in Springfield were eating people’s pets, he brushed it off to rail against immigrants instead:

Reporter: The mayor of Springfield, Ohio, the police chief, the Republican governor of Ohio, have all debunked this story about people eating pets. And now there are bomb threats at schools and kids being evacuated. Why do you still spread this false story?

Trump: No, no. No. The real threat is what’s happening at our border. Because you have thousands of people being killed by illegal migrants coming in and also dying. You have women dying as they come up. They’re coming up in large groups. We call it a caravan. I think I came up with that name, but it’s really what it is. 10,000, 15,000, 20,000 people. And you have large numbers of women being killed in those caravans coming up to this country and then when they get here, they can go into the country, and they end up being sex slaves and everything else. Those are your real problems, not the problem that you’re talking.
