Trump falsely claims Haitian migrants are eating pets in Ohio

Former President Donald Trump falsely claimed Haitian immigrants are "eating the dogs" and pets in Springfield, Ohio, during the presidential debate Tuesday night. A city spokesperson told CBS News there have been "no credible reports or specific claims" of pets being harmed by immigrants. CBS News chief Washington correspondent Major Garrett has the details.

THAT'S A LIE. There was a protest by Ohio residents outraged by immigrants eating pets.

Funny enough Ohio residents are stating that Haitian immigrants are eating pets.

[soulseeker]

He wasn't lying....watch the city council meeting. They are eating ducks at parks.

[min-k]

Media saying no.
Ohio residents say yes.

[sandracombs]

People are coming on line from Ohio saying Trump is speaking the truth. Cats and ducks.

[NJP-pizb]

I guess the news thinks the entire town are liars.

[edge]

Not only they're eating animals but also driving recklessly and causing a lot of accidents

People who dont live in Ohio are saying it's not happening, but literally, all the residents in Ohio are saying the illegal immigrants are eating pets.

[sandrasmith]

Even Haitian people are telling us that they’re sacrificing all types of animals!

[darlaupton]

I watched the city council meeting where a man said that they were in fact “chopping off the ducks heads and eating them”.

Not reporting on Kamalas many lies? Fake news

[Angryjenkinsdigital]

Why is the media in such a rush to deny this? All the channels. In unison. Sad.

What's weird is... I live in ohio... close to Springfield. There has been a mass of reports of cats and dogs missing. There are also many people just waking up to migrants camping on their lawn, with just a mattress thrown down in the grass. There are other things as well.

Here is how I know he’s telling the truth… You say he’s lying

[juleskass]

You guys should seriously be ashamed of yourselves there's photographic evidence all sorts of stuff is coming out

[dpharr]

Why would the government dump 20, 000 people in this one town?

But we're talking about cats

[sharbear]

So you don't believe the people of springfield complaining to the city council? It was on the news.

[jameswiththeM]

Funny how they say its false, but it's actually true no matter how shocking it sounds

[SR-pbwf]

Im from Dominican Republic and yes they eat our cats here too. The media is trying to save them but we all know its true.
