Former second lady Dr. Jill Biden, whose husband former VP Joe Biden is running for the 2020 Democrat nomination, handed out tamales and Christmas gifts to migrants in Mexico as part of a visit with local leaders on Sunday -- and many Americans were not pleased with her choice of venue.

Biden toured a migrant camp across the border from Brownsville, Texas, home to over 2000 asylum-seekers. Many of the migrants, often referred to as MPPs, have remained in Mexico as part of the Department of Homeland Security’s Migrant Protection Protocols program as they await hearings before U.S. immigration officials.

“It’s heartbreaking. It’s really heartbreaking,” Biden said of the camp, according to Border Report. “Across the river is the flag of the United States. The flag of the United States offers people hope. They’re bringing their families and their loved ones here for hope of a better future and a better life for themselves.”

Pandering bitch looks down on them, except when there’s a vote to be had

[SpaceBar]

Money and power corrupt. Jill Biden shamelessly allies herself with illegal invaders to bolster her bastard husband’s campaign.

[Hatteras]

Nobody likes grits. They like whatever the grits are smothered in.

[dfwgator]

Are these magic grits?

[jmacusa]

Patronizing bitch.

Jill should have been handing out American food - hotdogs and hamburgers.

Of course, along with the tacos and tamales, she could have handed out brochures from USCIS detailing how to stand under that flag legally. Get a visa to come here, apply for a green card, etc. People do it all the time.

Heck, I’m in for all of it. I like tamales, fried chicken, and watermelon, and I’m lily white.

Collard greens, not kale.

Sweet tamales are a Christmas treat. They may well have raisins in them. Don’t know about the gin-soaked.

One more example of an undeniable truth.

Democrats/liberals/progressives/socialists (redundant, I know) are totally incapable of embarrassment. Can’t happen.

The simple answer is that the U.S. pays better welfare benefits than what Mexico pays for actual work. Throw is some cash under the table jobs like housecleaning and lawn mowing and the gap is even larger.

Our company opened a plant in Tijuana earlier this year after the agreement was signed with Mexico and can't recruit enough Mexicans. The Mexicans in the north of the country are actually fairly industrious and have a good work ethic. They basically see those from the south end of the country and Central America the same way we Americans view illegals in general.

They could all get work in Tijuana and other border cities if they were willing and capable. Most are neither. Especially when they know about the freebies available just north of the border.

“Grits with salt and pepper...”

With a couple eggs over-easy sitting on top.

More illegal Democrats, swell. If she is truly concerned about “victims” she should be consoling angel moms.
