When President Donald Trump declared a humanitarian and security crisis at the southern border in January, many Democrats attacked him.
As reported by Fox News, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) said the president was working to “manufacture a crisis, stoke fear and divert attention from the turmoil in his administration.†Democratic National Committee Chairman Tom Perez referred to it as “manufactured.†Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) called it a “‘crisis’ that doesn’t exist.†Finally, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) then tweeted that “we’re not falling†for the “fake crisis.â€
How things have changed!
Recently, congressional Democrats have engaged in several emotional appeals with regard to the border crisis. Most recently, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and House Democrats agreed to a $4.5 billion border funding bill for the sole purpose of rectifying the apparent “humanitarian crisis†(the “manufactured†one, remember?) at the nation’s borders and detention facilities.
