“L’audace, l’audace, toujours l’audace.” So says George C. Scott’s Patton in the eponymous movie when his comrades want another day’s rest during the Sicilian campaign. No one is going to mistake Kamala Harris for Gen. Patton, or even George C. Scott, but her latest tack on immigration honors his call for “audacity, audacity, always audacity.”
After helping preside over a comprehensive failure at the border, a lesser politician might mumble something or other and change the subject to aborting babies. A politician less certain that the media would swallow any set of absurdities deemed in her interest might hesitate before making such facially preposterous claims.
The idea that Harris has been a tough-minded success on the border while Donald Trump was a failure is sociopathic in its dishonesty. It’s tiresome and apparently beside the point to recite the basic facts, but after experiencing what was a migrant crisis by the old standard that now seems quaint, the Trump administration implemented a series of measures that all but brought illegal crossings to a halt. Then, the Biden administration reversed them all, and illegal immigration quickly accelerated to record levels.
