Sen. Kennedy explains the border crisis

 Red State:

...

With his customary flair, Kennedy zeroed in on Biden's disastrous border failures as only he can:

"Kayleigh, last Saturday, President Biden blamed the media for his unpopularity. The truth is that most members of the media have tried to help him. In my state, for example, our two largest newspapers are run by members of the loon wing of the Democratic Party, and they publish accordingly. But in Louisiana, President Biden is about as popular as herpes. 

Why is that? Two reasons. Number one, the people of Louisiana are not stupid. Number two, they think the Biden administration is. They think that its stupidity runs from the river to the sea. 

Exhibit A is the open border. President Biden has dissolved the southern border. Our problems at the southern border are man-made, and that man’s name is Joe Biden, and the people of Louisiana and the American people know it. 

Yet he blames the media for his unpopularity. It’s hard to believe that the president could be that obtuse. I guess if you ask him where Jordan is, he would say retired. But that’s where we are in America today."

Watch:

Kennedy is of course not wrong on this. Biden has consistently polled poorly on the issue of illegal immigration, with voters also ranking it as a top issue they will take into consideration before heading into the ballot box. When you see what's happening at the border on a daily basis and how he reacts to anyone who tries to do something to resolve the matter, you understand why voters feel the way they do.

...

Here in Texas, we are experiencing the border crisis first hand and state officials are trying to do something about it and Biden's response is to threaten to sue the state for trying to protect its border with Mexico.  As someone who grew up about 20 miles from the border, I know it does not have to be this way.  Border residents know the cartels are in charge of the border on the Mexican side and now are reluctant to go over there to restaurants to eat and shop as they used to.  And it is clearly not race that is driving these decisions.  Most Texas border residents are Hispanics whose families have lived there most of their lives.  They know how Biden has screwed it up and many of them who grew up as Democrats are now switching parties.
