‘The View’s Ana Navarro Says Trump Is Trying To “Make America White Again” With His Immigration Policies

Ana Navarro is sounding off on President Donald Trump and his controversial immigration policies.

On this morning’s episode of The View, the co-hosts discussed “Alligator Alcatraz,” Florida’s makeshift detention center for migrants, which has come under fire in recent days for inhumane conditions. Navarro began her rant by slamming Americans who have been taking touristy photos outside of the facility.

“What’s happening is horrible. If you are out there in the Everglades, driving out there, and getting out of your car to take a picture like it’s the Eiffel Tower, you are a racist and you are a horrible human being,” Navarro fumed, noting that Cubans who are “legal, permanent residents” are among those currently housed in Alligator Alcatraz.

According to Navarro, Trump’s mass deportation policies are targeting more than just “undocumented immigrants” and those with a criminal history.

“When you are taking away temporary protective status, when you are putting legal permanent residents in detention and deporting them, when you are threatening US citizens that you don’t like that you’re going to take away their US citizenship, when you are talking about birthright citizenship and taking that away, this is not about going after the criminals and the gang members, this is about making America white again and otherizing everybody who is an immigrant,” she said.

“At the same time that they are rounding up Latino immigrants, brown immigrants, they are opening up the doors for white South Afrikaners fleeing from a nonexistent genocide,” Navarro continued. “This is about deporting people and scaring people out of this country.”

Navarro also speculated that Trump’s immigration policies could be a direct response to the fact that the United States was “en route” to becoming a majority minority country, meaning most of its residents are non-white.

“They are trying to make America white again,” she doubled down. “Don’t fool yourselves.”

The View airs on weekdays at 11/10c on ABC.
