PoliticsTrump exploits France riots to push false immigration claims ahead of midterms

Donald Trump and his inner circle are using unrest in France to promote unsubstantiated claims that immigration caused the riots, including by showing French protest footage at midterm rallies. No evidence links immigration to the unrest. French President Emmanuel Macron accused world leaders of making “stupid comments” at France’s expense. Republicans face mounting midterm pressure as Trump’s approval rating reportedly reaches a record low.
