During an interview on “Media Buzz” that aired on Sunday, Kurtz asked Trump why he would not publicly set the record straight that migrants hadn’t chowed down on slews of cats and dogs in the city like he irresponsibly claimed.

Former President Donald Trump on Wednesday repeated his false claim that Haitian migrants in Springfield, Ohio, are eating their neighbors’ pets, using a town hall with undecided Hispanic voters to prop up misinformation that has been rejected by local and statewide leaders from both parties.

Trump repeated the false claim earlier Wednesday that “30,000 illegal aliens” were living in Springfield, Ohio, exaggerating city officials’ estimate of the total number of Haitian migrants living there.
