Why was it so important for him to repeat over and over and over again that countries were emptying their prisons and sending the criminals here? - Bill

Trump has been saying that for a long long time. It is a talking point to call attention to the border problem. Every time I heard him say it I knew it was not literally true, but it didn't bother me. It is another example of his clumsy (or devious) way to draw attention to the huge problems open borders has brought upon us. We have learned a crapload of unvetted hardened criminals got in and surely a few crazies too among the stream. But all the sources countries, all of the criminals and crazies, no way. So Trump is lying if you are a literalist, or it his bombastic style that only MAGAs understand.
