Summary
President Donald Trump compared the influx of migrants into Spain’s enclave of Ceuta from Morocco to a “catastrophe” and warned that the US could face a similar situation if Democrats regain power. Trump stated that the US has the safest border in the world due to the thousands of miles of wall built, but if Democrats take office, the country will be invaded at levels that make Spain’s situation look minor. He also criticized the Spanish government’s handling of the situation and claimed that many of the migrants are criminals. The Spanish government has deployed military forces to Ceuta and is working to repatriate the migrants.
