There's no evidence that countries are exporting criminals to the USA, just Trump's lies. - Lapsody

---------------

"No evidence".

Many of them have face and neck tattoos showing their allegiance to various gangs. I don't think these guys were coming to pick crops but got criminalized after they got here. You don't create a lengthy rap sheet for crimes committed here if you were not already a criminal when you arrived.

Maybe your quibble is the assertion that "Colombia is exporting". There may be some truth to that if the criminals are making their trek despite Colombian government sincere attempts at intervention. In that case Trumps accusation would be better expressed as "Columbia is failing to take effective measures to interdict Colombian criminals attempting to leave Colombia for the USA."
