Trump Urges France to Close Borders Amid Violent Protests
US President Donald Trump said France is "in flames" and urged the country to close its borders "before it is too late," blaming immigration for the violent protests and clashes devastating French cities in recent days. Trump stated that immigration of people from "a completely different world" who carry "hatred in their hearts" has shattered what was once a great nation. Vice President JD Vance echoed this, telling CBS News that immigration and assimilation problems are the root causes of the violence. Vance also posted on X that Western liberals "imported the Third World" into France, ignoring assimilation and compatibility, and prayed France ends the "madness" before more monuments burn. He warned Americans this is the future Democrats in Congress want for the US.
