Joe Biden Moves Awfully Slow On The Southern Border

A few days after Donald Trump's campaign announced that the former president and current presidential candidate would be visiting the border, the Biden White House said that President Biden would also go to the border. It became clear after Biden arrived that his visit was carefully scripted -- literally: Joe Biden, who is 81 years old and refuses to take a cognitive test, can be seen clutching onto his step-by-step itinerary and talking points for dear life during his photo-op visit to the Southern Border. https://twitter.com/HouseGOP/status/1763304878951031284 -- "YOU follow the man in the green uniform. YOU put on the ball cap. YOU don't fall down." The president we hear about who's full of vim and vigor must have left all that behind closed doors as usual: Joe Biden moves awfully slow on the southern border… Joe Biden’s stiff gait during orchestrated “border” tour is about as reassuring as the border he’s supposed to be visiting… STRENGTH!

Biden is actively patrolling the border! Biden's arrival was received warmly… by illegals. Americans concerned about securing the border, not so much: Biden reached this (calm) part of the border by driving through a gate in a border wall here. Pro-Trump protesters gathered on the other side. Naturally the White House wants some photo ops for later ads to make it look like Biden's actually done anything to secure the border (this was the purpose of the whole trip): Definitely for a campaign ad. Smile for the photo please. 🙄 Oh good lord … somebody save us from this embarrassment!!!! Meanwhile, the Border Patrol Union is unimpressed, to say the least, with Biden and his intentionally open border: Border Patrol Union - NBPC @BPUnion: “President Trump treats BP agents with respect, supports their mission and listens to their ideas. Biden falsely accuses agents of crimes, burned the border to the ground and only listens to his radical leftist base. See the difference?”

Bill Melugin @BillMelugin_: “The Border Patrol union president tells me the White House never reached out or invited them for Biden’s border visit in Brownsville today. They expect Biden to cite the union’s support for the failed Senate border bill today. “Keep our name out of your mouth today,” union says.” https://twitter.com/BPUnion/status/1763211839285174594
