Trump slams Colorado Gov. Jared Polis over handling of migrant gangs in Aurora: ‘He’s chickens—t’
SUMMARY
President Donald Trump slammed Colorado Governor Jared Polis, accusing him of being "chickens–t" for not taking stronger action against the Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang, which has reportedly taken over apartment complexes in Aurora, Colorado. Trump alleged that the gang has been terrorizing residents by collecting rent, breaking down doors, and committing violent acts. He blamed Polis’ policies for allowing migrant crime to surge, and noted that several Colorado counties have filed lawsuits against the governor. Polis dismissed Trump's claims during a CNN appearance, asserting that Aurora is safer than ever and criticizing Trump for not fully understanding the situation. Trump reiterated his plan to invoke the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to deport gang members if elected, while also calling for harsher penalties for illegal migrants involved in violent crimes.
