Angle. Today, Vice President harris traveled to texas to check the border box and play a game of makebelieve. It is important to be clear, working to build a fair and functional we feel very strongly about that and i do know we inherited a tough situation and in five months we have made progress but there is still much more work to be done but weve made progress. Laura progress . Lies and more lies. Number one, she and biden were not handed a tough situation at the border. They created a disaster at the border, they did. Thanks to trumps remain in mexico policy and aggressive interior enforcement, illegal immigration crossings were driven way down under trump and number two, by progress she means total abdication because most americans define progress at the border as a reduction in the number of illegal crossers.
