Trump pushes false immigration claims about France riots at midterm rallies

Donald Trump and his allies are using unrest in France to push unsubstantiated claims blaming immigrants for the violence, including showing protest footage at midterm rallies, despite no evidence supporting such links. French President Emmanuel Macron has accused world leaders of making "stupid comments" about the situation, noting false claims and AI-generated images. Trump has warned the U.S. could become "like France" if Democrats win, citing unverified assertions about migrants and jihadists. The protests began over school conditions and expanded to cost-of-living concerns. Trump faces political pressure with a reported 31% approval rating ahead of midterms, while voters prioritize issues like living costs and the Iran war.
