For most of his administration, Joe Biden has appeared to ignore the border crisis. Over 7 million illegal aliens entered the country. Yet the official word from the White House, for years, was that there was no crisis.
But in recent months, it seems Democrats discovered that Biden cannot win reelection if he keeps ignoring the border.
He announced a trip to Texas to meet with officials about the situation. The Border Patrol union blasted the trip as self-serving for Joe. And now, Trump himself has one-upped the failing president.
From Fox News:
President Biden and former President Trump will both head to the southern border on Thursday as the besieged southern border becomes a top political issue — and as the nation is gripped by a wave of stories of violent crimes committed by illegal immigrants…“When I am your President, we will immediately Seal the Border, Stop the Invasion, and on Day One, we will begin the largest deportation operation of illegal CRIMINALS in American History!” Trump said this week on TruthSocial.
Trump announced he was traveling to the border on the same day as President Biden. He will highlight the ongoing problems hammering border states, while many doubt Biden’s trip will result in anything.
Years ago, Donald Trump warned about the problems on our border. He vowed in 2016 to build a border wall and end the ongoing tide of illegal immigration. But Republicans in Congress refused to support his agenda, while Democrats claimed there was no problem.
But under Joe Biden, few can deny the border is under siege. Millions of migrants have entered the country illegally, as many fear this crisis will “destroy” major cities.
Biden has refused to use his executive authority to secure the border. Instead, he has demanded Republicans in the House to pass a bill that will send more money to Ukraine than the U.S. border. He will no doubt use his trip to Texas to once again call for the passage of this bill.
Meanwhile, Trump has vowed to close the border and deport millions of illegal aliens, if he is elected.
Key Takeaways:
- Donald Trump announced a trip to the border on the same day as Biden.
- Joe Biden has ignored the border crisis for years.
- Biden refuses to close the border and is demanding more money from Congress.
