It’s no coincidence that the president has started talking tough on the border straight after Donald Trump’s thumping victory in Iowa, where concerns about illegal migration were on every caucusgoer’s lips.
After flinging open the border and inviting in 8 million-plus illegal aliens, Joe Biden belatedly has woken up to the electoral kryptonite and admitted the border crisis.
“No, it’s not,” he said when asked by a reporter whether the border was secure. “I haven’t believed that for the last 10 years, and I’ve said it for the last 10 years. Give me the money.”
Biden is playing a sly political game, trying to blame Republicans for the border chaos he created.
But it doesn’t take money or bipartisan amnesty deals to halt the border invasion.
It takes an executive order reinstating Trump’s border protections that Biden dismantled on day one.
That’s why millions of illegal migrants are flooding into the country. He invited them in.
He spelled out his plans during the 2020 election campaign: “What I would do as president is … immediately surge to the border all those people who are seeking asylum.”
