Democrats have a huge border problem. But it's not just their problem
Opinion: It will hurt Democrats if Title 42 expires on May 23 without a Plan B. Republicans may gloat about the border disorder, but they also stand to lose.

To see the destructive force of immigration on the Democratic Party, you need only look at those Democrats with the most to lose in the midterm elections.
The party’s candidates in swing states, including Arizona, are warning the Biden administration that Title 42, the temporary rule that allows the United States to rapidly expel migrants during the pandemic, could stand between them and victory in November.
If the administration allows Title 42 to expire on May 23 without a Plan B, the surge of humanity northward is likely to create televised chaos. Voters will be upset and punish Democratic candidates, officials in both parties warn.
Democrats should be worried about Title 42
In Arizona, the Democrats’ likely nominee for governor, Katie Hobbs, does not hedge her words. Ending Title 42 “without a clear plan to secure our border would be a disaster.”
