Nigel Farage Repeats Donald Trump’s Dangerous Conspiracy Theory About Immigrants Eating Pets

“Whenever Donald Trump makes a comment which is ridiculed, it always turns out to be true,” the Reform UK leader claimed.

Nigel Farage repeated Donald Trump’s widely-ridiculed and dangerous claim that immigrants in the US state of Ohio are eating cats and dogs on Thursday morning.
During a debate last week, the former US president, who is running for re-election, said Springfield citizens “have had their pets abducted and eaten by people who shouldn’t be in this country”. The Wall Street Journal has since traced this claim back to a particular police report, based on a pet-owner who later found her lost cat in her basement.
Trump’s own VP nominee JD Vance also admitted he “created” the story “to draw attention to the Biden-Harris immigration policies”.
So on ITV’s Good Morning Britain, Reform UK leader Farage, who is also a friend of Trump, was asked how he felt about such comments. “You’re very loyal to Donald Trump,” Richard Madeley began.“How difficult is that when he says things like ‘Springfield cats and dogs are being eaten by immigrants’ and saying that he believes it was divine intervention that saved his life?”
The Republican nominee survived an assassination attempt against him in July and has since claimed it showed he had “God on his side”.
Madeley continued: “He can be pretty ridiculous, can’t he, isn’t that hard for you to stay loyal to?”
