Trump’s Davos speech shows influence of deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller’s racist worldview

AI Summary

long article 4 min

During a speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Donald Trump delivered a message seemingly aimed at unifying the West. However, the speech contained divisive rhetoric concerning immigration and cultural identity. Trump asserted the West must resist "barbarian hordes" and lamented the changing appearance of certain European places due to "unchecked mass migration." He cited his own European heritage and criticized immigration policies, particularly targeting the Somali community in Minnesota, accusing them of large-scale fraud. Trump questioned how people from Somalia, which he described as a failed state, could steal so much money, and criticized Somali-born Congresswoman Ilhan Omar.
