President Trump humorously suggested placing African crocodiles in the Rio Grande as a deterrent against migrants. Initially mentioning this concept was a joke, he later expressed his growing affinity for the idea. During a conversation with political commentator Benny Johnson at an event, Trump corrected him by clarifying they were actually crocodiles from Africa, saying they represent a step beyond alligators. Trump noted that while the suggestion was intended as a joke, many supporters thought it was a viable solution.
President Trump stated, "I was thinking about that, I must say. It was meant more as a joke but the more I thought of it, the more I liked it, if you wanna know the truth. They were actually crocodiles from Africa. They are a step beyond."
Trump mentioned, "But no, that was really meant as a joke, but a lot of people liked it. And a lot of people think we should do it, frankly."
