During a recent interview, Florida Republican Senator Marco Rubio addressed concerns raised by individuals on the left regarding the GOP's stance on immigration and crime. Rubio dismissed claims that the GOP is using statistics to instill fear and demonize immigrants, particularly in light of President Trump's recent comments on migrant crime.
Rubio, the son of Cuban immigrants, emphasized that criminal behavior exists in every country and among all populations. He pointed out that a portion of any large group of people, such as the 6.2 million migrants in question, may include individuals with criminal backgrounds. Rubio highlighted the case of a notorious gang from Venezuela that has spread its criminal activities to other countries, including the United States.
