President Donald Trump touched down in Scotland on Friday and issued a dire warning to European leaders, who he said had better get a handle on illegal immigration or they won't have a country.
During an impromptu press gathering on the tarmac at Glasgow Prestwick Airport, Trump spoke to reporters about his trip to Scotland and the leaders whom he would be meeting with, then took on a few questions, one about his crackdown on illegal immigration.

"On immigration, you better get your act together or you're not going to have Europe anymore. You got to get your act together, "Trump said. "And as you know last month, we had nobody entering our country. Nobody. Shut it down."
"And we took out a lot of bad people that got there with [former President Joe] Biden. And what he allowed to happen. But you're allowing it to happen to your countries," he added. "And you've got to stop this horrible invasion that's happening to Europe. Many countries in Europe. …. This immigration is killing Europe.
Trump didn't name the places where he felt immigration was under control or the leaders who he said haven't gotten enough credit for preventing the invasion of their countries.
The president also discussed his plans to meet with the President of the EU Commission, Ursula Von der Leyen.

Thanks to President Trump, illegal immigration into our great country has virtually stopped. Despite the radical left's lies, new legislation wasn't needed to secure our border, just a new president.
