When Trump was POTUS, he used his powers to get the
illegal immigration numbers down to a very reasonable number.
Then, when Biden and Harris got in office, out of pure
spite, on day one the issued Executive Orders reversing
most of Trumps. And the flood across the border began.
Just recently, they took steps again to reduce.
But dumbbell Harris can not think of anything she
would do differently!!
On 60 minutes,
Vice President Kamala Harris was pressed by CBS
News' Bill Whitaker about whether it was a
"mistake" for the Biden administration to go
soft on its border policies during a tense
exchange on Monday's special election episode of
"60 Minutes."
"You recently visited the southern border and
embraced President Biden's recent crackdown on
asylum seekers, and that crackdown
produced an almost immediate and dramatic decrease
in the number of border crossings," Whitaker said.
"If that's the right answer now, why
didn't your administration take those steps in
2021?"
"The first bill we proposed to Congress was to fix
our broken immigration system, knowing that if you
want to actually fix it, we
need Congress to act. It was not taken up," Harris
responded. "Fast forward to a moment when a
bipartisan group of members of the United
States Senate, including one of the most
conservative members of the
United States Senate, got together, came up with a
border security bill.
"Well, guess what happened? Donald Trump got word
that this bill was afoot and could be passed, and
he wants to run on a problem instead of
fixing a problem. So he told his buddies in
Congress, 'Kill the bill, don't let it move
forward.'"
"I've been covering the border for years, and so I
know this is not a problem that started with your
administration," Whitaker said. "But
there was an historic flood of undocumented
immigrants coming across the border the first
three years of your administration. As a matter
of fact, arrivals quadrupled from the last year of
President Trump."
"Was it a mistake to loosen the immigration
policies as much as you did?" Whitaker then asked.
"It's a long-standing problem, and solutions are
at hand, and from day one, literally, we have been
offering solutions," Harris responded.
