McHugh tells “On Balance” that, though the claims of Haitians grabbing people’s pets for food are unsubstantiated, longtime residents are indeed upset, and he fears what will happen.

I live in Springfield Ohio. Born and raised. This town has been destroyed by the influx of immigrants.

[dhickey]

So, Donald Trump pointed out a problem Americans of Ohio are facing, and it immediately gets a national spotlight. Sounds like a guy listening to the people.

[yellowbear]

ABC should apologize to every resident of this town

[wildmouse]

Whoever made the decision to dump that many refugees there knew very well the hardships they would create for the people of Springfield.

Send them to Delaware. The state that sent and kept sending Joe Biden to Congress. Share the joy.

[eddie-xrmn]

It's gonna get worse and worse. Going to come to your town also. Vote red to stop this.

[TheRajmoney]

Why dont these reporters go there and interview the residents.

[Bob-bmpd]

Hatti is a dump. What do you think they will do to your town?

[terencegumbs]

This issue alone should end the Democratic Party's election chances.

[mslaxer]

Same craps going, on here in the UK. Good luck, American brothers and sisters!

The people telling you Trump was lying are the same ones who said Hunter's laptop was a lie in 2020

I watched a Haitian YouTuber who openly stated that Haitians consume cats and dogs. He even shared that he has been eating cats since childhood. Because of this, I believe what the people in Ohio are saying, and it seems like the city officials may be trying to cover up the truth. I wouldn't be shocked if the city officials were contacted by the federal government to deny everything people have been reported to the City . It appears that some Haitians in Ohio may be attempting to bring certain aspects of their culture to the U.S.

[suedanim]

The residents said they are eating cats, park ducks, roadkill, etc. it’s not metaphors it real life right now in this country. Wake UP

[westonmakesdrinks]

How is this racist? If it's true then it's true and the residents have a right to be upset and frustrated about it as anybody else would white black or anybody

[kathyleechoi]

Joe Biden / Kamala and Gov Dewine must be hold accountable this issue,

[DerekOlsons]

No English no driving experience and get licenses and crash pow boom..

[rickharris]

Why is the city covering for them? There's got to be money involved.

[daveking]

It's amazing that people in this state will still vote for Harris. Remember, you get what you vote for!

[blazee]

I would be mad as hell! I don’t care if they came from Europe, you can’t just dump thousands of strangers into a town and not expect the residents to be concerned.

[aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-cq]

I live in Springfield. They are a problem. Imagine just theft alone. They eat dinner while walking through groceries. People have worked for years to get pay raises. They work for little. Yes, ducks that our children would visit the park to feed are disappearing. They are pets to the children, or were.
