Colo. News Anchor Rips Trump Over ‘Tren de Aragua’ Comments

A local Colorado news anchor slammed Donald Trump Monday for comments the former president has made saying a migrant gang had taken over parts of Aurora, Colo. Trump has repeatedly said that a violent Venezuelan gang called “Tren de Aragua” had taken control of apartment complexes in the city.

Anchor Kyle Clark said on 9News Monday, “The Republicans who lead Aurora still disagree whether a Venezuelan gang currently controls apartment complexes in that city, while Donald Trump continues his attacks on Aurora at a racist and bigoted campaign rally at Madison Square Garden last night.”

Clark reported that Aurora’s GOP Mayor Mike Coffman and Police Chief Todd Chamberlain both dismissed the idea that gangs currently control apartment complexes. Coffman told 9News, “The central question is, is there a problem now? And I don’t believe there is. We did have a problem. There’s no question about it that there was a problem, but there was a law enforcement response to that problem.”
