DONALD TRUMP: I made a great deal with Mexico. And this was an interesting deal, but I had stay in Mexico. In other words, nobody could come in. You had to wait in Mexico until you're approved legally to come in, which wasn't a big percentage of people. And we had that thing down to a science, and many other things, but we had stay in Mexico. Getting that -- now, what they've done is destroyed it. And the only reason they even have a little bit of it, a semblance of it is that a court said you can't do this, but they're trying to do it anyway.
They want people to come into our country no matter who they are, whether they're very sick with COVID or anything else, whether they're criminals coming out of jails. Other countries are emptying their jails into the United States, and they're coming in unchecked. People don't know where they come from, who they are, what their names are. The border is being rushed. This is like an invasion. This is an invasion. This is like a military invasion. And you know who's really running the borders is the cartels.
SEAN HANNITY (HOST): By the way, Joe Biden policies are aiding and abetting the law-breaking, but it's even worse. You got preferential treatment. You don't have a -- you don't have a COVID test. You don't get vaccine-mandated. There's no vetting of your background and associations. There's no health check in the middle of a pandemic and you get free Biden phones on top of it and free transportation to the state of your choice.
TRUMP: And the number of people coming in is many times the number they're telling you. Many, many times. It's horrible, what's happening.
