Former president Donald Trump has pledged the "largest deportation" in US history if reelected as he slammed a New York City high school for moving students to remote learning to accommodate 2,000 migrants.
During a town hall with Iowa voters hosted by Fox News, Trump said the southern border crisis was "not sustainable" for the country.
“We have millions and millions of people here. It is not sustainable," Trump told the audience on Wednesday night.
"Did you see in New York City with it getting the regular students out and they're putting migrants in their place?"
James Madison High School in Brooklyn, New York, is facing backlash after its students were told to stay home so thousands of migrants could be sheltered in the school instead.
Around 2,000 migrants, who had been sheltered in a tent shelter in New York, were transferred to the nearby school due to high wind concerns.
