Donald Trump has been hammering Joe Biden on the border crisis for more than a year, and the president has yet to come up with an answer for it.
The latest Decision Desk poll finds Trump topping Biden 46-26 as better able to deal with the border crisis. Since the border is the second-most important issue facing the country behind the economy, according to almost all the polls, Trump is using the border as a club to pound the president into submission, especially in the half-dozen states that will decide the election.
Trump leads in six of seven key battleground states, and immigration is one of the biggest reasons. So it’s not surprising that Biden would dig into his bag of optical illusions and come up with something that, on the surface, appears to be a significant upgrade to border security.
In fact, it’s a continuation of the smoke and mirrors that Biden has been using since he woke up and realized that his dismal record on the border could cost him a second term.
Today, the president will announce several changes to our border policy. The one that will receive the most media attention is the change in asylum rules that will allow for easier and quicker deportation for some illegal aliens.
