From the New York Post [1] this morning:
President Biden is finally calling the chaos at the southern border what it is — a crisis.
The startling rhetorical turnabout came Saturday in an off-the-cuff conversation with reporters in Wilmington, Del., as Biden tried to defend his Friday flip-flop on refugee admissions.
“We’re going to increase the number [of refugees allowed into the country],” Biden said as he headed home after playing the first golf game of his presidency. “The problem was that the refugee part was working on the crisis that ended up on the border with young people.”
He’s still misidentifying the problem of course. Correctly identifying the problem would put the blame for the mess directly on the shoulders of himself and Kamala Harris. And, you can’t have that.
Clearly, however, Biden was operating without a script and that’s the most dangerous thing for his own agenda that he could possibly do.
I can’t get over the feeling that Joe Biden finally getting around to admitting that what we have at the border is a crisis, (his words not mine), was merely a slip of the tongue. That said, I can’t help but wonder how long it’s going to be before he finally gets around to admitting that that crisis was created by Democratic party policies, and specifically, is policies…his bowing to the extreme left.
In fairness to Biden, it’s becoming increasingly untenable for the White House to keep denying that there is in fact a crisis there, but one gets the impression it’s handlers are going to be annoyed with him for having drifted off the script again.
And where in the world is the vice president? Wasn’t she supposed to be in charge of taking care of the problem down there? It’s clear that the Democrats don’t have a clue as to what to do about the problem that they’ve created, and that the reason Harris hasn’t shown up on the border as she will be immediately expected to be fixing the problem.
She’ll never do it, she doesn’t know how… none of the Democrats do, in fact. Their preconceived notions, their one- worldism stands in the way of all logic.
The biggest problem the Democrats face with this right now is the same problem that they’re facing across the board. They can’t blame president Trump for it any longer. They broke this, they own it, and they know it, and they simply have no clue as to how to deal with it.
