President Donald Trump was on Monday furious over images of a “caravan” of hundreds of Central American migrants headed toward the US border.

For the second straight day, Trump took to Twitter to attack Mexico for allowing the 1,500-strong group to march unimpeded toward the United States.

He threatened to abrogate NAFTA — the US-Mexico-Canada free trade pact — while demanding Congress pass tougher immigration legislation and support his plan for a wall along the Mexican frontier.

He also declared he no longer supported a replacement for DACA, the programme that had offered protection against deportation for about 700,000 undocumented immigrants, most of them Mexicans, who came to the US as children.

Since taking office more than a year ago, Trump has sought to crack down on legal and undocumented immigration, but some of his proposals have become tied up in court and Congress.

“As ridiculous as it sounds, the laws of our country do not easily allow us to send those crossing our Southern Border back where they came from. A whole big wasted procedure must take place,” Trump tweeted in the evening, following similar comments in the morning and on Sunday.

“Mexico & Canada have tough immigration laws, whereas ours are an Obama joke. ACT CONGRESS.”

The administration’s own statistics showed that arrests of undocumented migrants soared in the first year of Trump’s presidency, while illegal border crossings plummeted.

Data from Immigration and Customs Enforcement suggested, however, that processes to deport arrested illegal immigrants have become even more backed up than before.

“Honduras, Mexico and many other countries that the U.S. is very generous to, send many of their people to our country through our weak immigration policies.

“Caravans are heading here. Must pass tough laws and build the wall. Democrats allow open borders, drugs and crime!”

The president has repeatedly tried to link immigration with crime but immigrant defenders say many immigrants are fleeing poverty and violence.
