Donald Trump warned that the current crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border will soon turn the United States into a "Third World Nation."
Trump said in a statement on Monday:
"The United States will soon be considered a Third World Nation."
"There has never been anything like what is happening at our Border."
"Millions of people have already poured in, but many more than that are coming!"
Over the weekend, Trump said the U.S is "rapidly becoming a cesspool of humanity."

He stated that "murderers, drug dealers, and criminals" were pouring into the country from Haiti, including South American and African countries.
Trump's remarks come as thousands of Haitian immigrants recently arrived at the U.S. southern border.

“Our #bordercrisis goes beyond the RGV and South TX communities — the smuggling of drugs, people, and weapons reaches far and wide, and it affects all of us. I will continue to work tirelessly to secure our border and protect the people of Texas." — @GregAbbott_TX pic.twitter.com/2kMkse29l2

On Sunday, Biden enjoyed a leisurely bike ride near a Delaware beach despite the border crisis.
According to Customs and Border Protection (CBP), the border agents encountered 208,887 migrants in August.
Last month, the Supreme Court rejected the Biden administration’s attempt to overturn a district judge’s reimplementation of Trump's “Remain in Mexico,” which requires migrants to reside in Mexico until their hearing in the U.S.
