Conservatives have been saying for a long time that our porous southern border poses a security risk. Over the years there have been multiple news stories about Middle Easterners with terrorist connections being apprehended at the border, or after crossing the border.

Democrats, liberals, progressives, media, and certain never trumpers near/far have evolved to a worldly outlook.

No borders. No war. Imagine.

Borders equal patriotism. nationalism. populism.

If you care aout borders, you are a racist.
