The Republican National Committee is embracing the term “bloodbath” for a new website highlighting crimes committed by migrants under the Biden administration, just after former President Donald Trump angered liberals by using the word to describe the impact of President Biden’s policies.
BidenBloodbath.com, unveiled by the RNC on Tuesday, features recent data related to the border crisis, and people can sign up to be messaged when crimes occur.
“Biden created the worst border crisis in U.S. history by unleashing his open-border policies. He has emboldened illegal aliens and cartels as the invasion at the southern border continues at a breakneck pace,” the website says.
“Biden could end this crisis today if he wanted to, by reversing his executive actions or by supporting House-passed legislation. He refuses to,” it says. “We must win back the White House to secure the border. A vote for Biden is a vote to allow criminals to invade our nation and attack Americans.”
The website also offers state-specific data, and figures for battleground states, including Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas, and Wisconsin.
“Biden is allowing vicious criminals, illegal drugs, gangs, and terrorists into the United States,” Trump campaign spokesperson Danielle Alvarez said in a statement. “He alone has the power to reverse course and secure our border to protect our communities, yet he refuses to take action. Biden is prioritizing illegal immigrants over Americans. That’s why in November, we will vote to send President Donald J. Trump back to the White House to put an end to Biden’s border bloodbath.”
At a recent campaign event, Mr. Trump said there would be a “bloodbath” in the domestic auto industry if Mr. Biden wins reelection. Liberals reacted angrily, with some Democrats accusing Mr. Trump of encouraging political violence.
The website was launched as Mr. Trump holds a rally in Grand Rapids, Michigan Tuesday to discuss immigration, calling it “Biden’s Border Bloodbath.”
The rally comes after Grand Rapids resident Ruby Garcia, 25, was murdered. Her boyfriend, Brandon Ortiz-Vite, 25, who is reportedly in the country illegally from Mexico, was arrested for her death. He faces charges of felony murder, open murder, carjacking, carrying a concealed weapon and felony firearm possession.
Mr. Biden has increasingly been criticized for his border policies. Crimes committed by illegal immigrants in the U.S. have been a major talking point for Republicans and Mr. Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee.
