Donald Trump promised that he would never let America devolve into chaos during his Monday night rally in Kansas as mass demonstrations rocked France.
Trump addressed the riots – which have overrun the country with looting, arson and chaos on the streets over rising prices – and vowed to keep the destruction from taking place in the US while he remains president.
'Look at what's happening in France, a once great nation, that is being conquered, looted and burned to the ground by migrants, jihadists and communists who hate Christianity and hate, frankly, the western civilization itself,' Trump said.
He accused 'globalist left-wing politicians' of importing 'millions and millions of third world migrants who are incompatible with western values.'
'They're destroying that country and we're not gonna let that happen to this country!'
Trump also joked about withholding his 'Trump Dividend,' promising $5,000 to every American if the GOP wins the midterms, to anyone who wants to 'join the revolution' in France.
'We don't want you saying, "Let's go to China and spend the money. Let's go to Japan. Let's go to South Korea. Let's go to some beautiful place like France. Let's go to France. We can join. We can join the revolution and then come home to sanity,'" he said.
'We don't want you to go to France. I would think that France's recreation money is not too good. No, but I don't want you to go to France.'
Earlier Monday, Trump told the press that he believes French President Emmanuel Macron made a mistake by adhering to lax immigration policies.

'I told him a long time ago, "You're making a big mistake in France,"' Trump said about Macron. '"You're letting everybody from the world come in."'
'The whole world was coming in, and you know, Paris is going to be a Muslim city very soon - and that wasn't the deal. That wasn't the deal.'
'I told Emmanuel you should close up your borders, and let's see, I've known him for probably eight or nine years. I told him as soon as I met him, "You're making a big mistake,"' the president continued.
'We closed our borders, he didn't. And you know what? His borders are a problem.'
'But Emmanuel should have closed his borders a long time ago,' he concluded. 'I told him to do it.'
The demonstrations were started by teachers and students a month ago in response to staff shortages and have grown into a wider movement against rising prices.
They have been joined by extremist politicians and activists such as Jean-Luc Melenchon, head of the hard-Left France Unbowed party.
Scenes from the weekend showed looters in France smashing their way into designer stores to steal luxury items amid the 'unrestrained violence'.

Dozens of hooded young men were filmed swarming high-end outlets like Christian Dior and Louis Vuitton, leaving shelves of expensive jewelry and clothing entirely bare.
In an address Sunday night, Macron blamed 'agitators from far-Left fringe groups, joined by numerous criminals' for plunging his country into 'unbridled violence.'
He made a plea 'for unity' following the weekend of chaos, which saw nearly 2,400 people arrested and almost 1,000 police and gendarmes injured – seven seriously.
'Looking at these images, we have all asked ourselves how French people could do this to France.
'Nothing justifies it, nothing explains it, nothing excuses it.
'Those who looted will have to pay back for the damage, and those who sought to bring down the Republic will be held accountable,' he then vowed.
At least four different protests littered the early portion of Trump's speech, as he stumped for Senator Roger Marshall.
One heckler had to be removed from the premises and gave the middle finger to the pro-MAGA crowd amid boos and Trump's own jeers.

Trump claimed that the disruptors were paid protesters and remarked that it would dominate the headlines.
The President has had to deal with liberal hecklers at almost every rally he's appeared at during this campaign cycle.
Trump has often mocked them as 'paid protesters' or joked that they're 'going home to mom.'
The President received a lengthy applause as he walked out to 'God Bless the USA' by Lee Greenwood before declaring: 'I love you, Kansas.'
Marshall faces a challenge from Democrat Adam Hamilton, with polls showing the race in a dead heat with just over two weeks until Election Day.
Democrats need four seats to win the Senate, where Republicans currently hold a 53-47 majority.
A series of competitive Senate races will prove decisive, with contests in states including Texas, Maine, Ohio, Iowa, Kansas and Alaska being the closest in the country.

The rally comes just hours after it was revealed a 24-year-old Kansas man was charged after allegedly calling for Trump to be shot, according to officials.
Jaden J. Read, from Clearwater, was arrested on Saturday after a tip alerted authorities to a string of disturbing Facebook posts about Trump's upcoming visit to Wichita on Monday, the Department of Justice said.
Federal prosecutors said the investigation began on October 15 when someone contacted Crime Stoppers about comments that Read left beneath a KAKE News report announcing the president's October 19 appearance.
In one post, Read allegedly called for someone to shoot Trump, writing, 'Let's shoot Trump honestly, where's our shooter? I'm tired of living this money life.'
He then allegedly followed up in the comments by claiming he had obtained ammunition and threatening to kill the president.
'I just got a 308 and 305 round and I'm killing this pedo,' Read wrote.
On October 17, investigators subsequently uncovered further comments Read had made beneath a separate report by KWCH 12 News about Trump's visit.
Read allegedly wrote that he would shoot the president himself before claiming he knew where Trump would be speaking and had already identified nearby rooftops.

'Can we shoot him in Kansas please I will myself,' Read wrote.
One minute later, Read wrote, 'IK where your speech will be. Already mapped out roofs around. Finna get kirked since yall couldn't help him.'
The comments prompted a federal investigation, resulting in Read's arrest in Clearwater on October 17.
He is now being held in federal custody while awaiting a detention hearing.
Read faces a federal charge of threatening the president, which carries a potential prison sentence of up to five years.
Ryan A Kriegshauser, the US attorney for Kansas, said the case served as a warning that political disagreements did not give people the right to make threats of violence.
He stressed that while Americans are entitled to express strong political opinions, that freedom has legal limits.
The investigation is being carried out by the Secret Service, US Marshals Service, Kansas Bureau of Investigation, Kansas Highway Patrol and Wichita Police Department.
