Senator Tammy Duckworth blamed Trump for the mess that Biden had to inherit at the southern border. It's Trump's fault. It's always his fault.
Jim Carafano said the notion this was all under control before Trump showed up is factious. Carafano said almost every policy Trump put into place was strategic and reliable to control the border.
"They can repeat all the talking points they want, but we had very few people coming in and we weren't bleeding billions of dollars of taking care of people we have in custody," he said. When lawmakers add up what Biden is spending on the border, they would be shocked to find out it's in the billions.
Carafano said the cartels make $14 million a day on this.
If you want to speak in a blunt way about all this, Carafano said we are sitting at 6% unemployment and most Americans don't have a job, all the while illegal immigrants are flooding the border to come into the country to get jobs.
