GRAND RAPIDS, Michigan — Former President Donald Trump went to Michigan on Tuesday to hammer President Joe Biden on immigration in a major battleground state.
He left beset by controversy, facing questions about whether he fabricated an anecdote about speaking to family members of a murder victim.
“I spoke to some of her family,” Trump said of Ruby Garcia, a 25-year-old woman who was allegedly killed by an undocumented immigrant in March. Of Garcia, he said: “she lit up that room, and I’ve heard that from so many people.”
According to Garcia’s sister, he did not hear that from any member of Garcia’s family. In fact, Mavi Garcia said Trump never spoke to the family at all.
“He did not speak with any of us, so it was kind of shocking seeing that he had said that he had spoke with us, and misinforming people on live TV,” Ruby Garcia’s sister told a Grand Rapids NBC affiliate.
