Four months ago, after weeks of intense negotiation between my staff and Democrats and Republicans, we came to a clear — clear bipartisan deal that was the strongest border security agreement in decades. But then Republicans in Congress — not all, but — walked away from it. Why? Because Donald Trump told them to. He told the Republicans — it has been published widely by many of you — that he didn’t want to fix the issue; he wanted to use it to attack me. That’s what he wanted to do. It was a cynical and a – extremely cynical political move and a complete disservice to the American people, who are looking for us to — not to weaponize the border but to fix it.

    Biden is limiting migrant crossings to 2,500 per day in an attempt to keep migrants from being homeless in sanctuary cities.

    Trump forcibly separated parents from children, deported the parents and detained the children in facilities where they were physically and sexually abused, while outlawing immigration of Muslims and “suspected Muslims.”

    Yup. They’re the basically the same thing.
