Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump announced plans for a victim compensation fund at a news conference in Mar-a-Lago, Florida on Tuesday, intended to support people impacted by crimes allegedly committed by migrants. Trump proposed that, if reelected, his administration would fund this program by seizing assets from gangs:
"Today, I'm announcing that for the first time, under my administration, we will be seizing the assets of the criminal gangs and drug cartels, and we will use those assets to create a compensation fund to provide restitution for the victims of migrant crime. And the government will help in the restitution. But something has to be done, and we're going to get it done"
