Border Patrol gives credit to Trump for 73% drop in apprehensions in five months
November 16, 2019 | Frieda Powers

Border Patrol officials are giving President Donald Trump the credit for a nearly 100,000 drop in the number of apprehensions of migrants illegally crossing the border.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection released its Southwest Border Migration Report this week which indicated a drop of nearly 73 percent in apprehensions in the last five months, a shift that seems to be directly related to Trump’s policies.

“This Administration has implemented critical policies and reached important agreements with our partners in Mexico, El Salvador, Honduras, and Guatemala that have resulted in the fifth consecutive month of reduced apprehensions on the Southwest border,” Acting Commissioner Mark Morgan said.

Great news! I'd say given the stonewalling by the DEMS and RINO's this is quite an accomplishment.

It doesn't matter whether his manic critics around these parts credit him or not, this is great news.
