‘Just show up!’: House Dem Henry Cuellar rips Biden for not visiting the border
NY Post ^ | 12/15/2022 | Victor Nava

A border-state House Democrat ripped President Biden on Wednesday for not showing enough urgency about the immigration crisis at the southern border — claiming the situation will be out of control.

Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX) told CNN’s Kaitlan Collins that communities in his state will soon be “overwhelmed” by migrants crossing the Rio Grande from Mexico into Texas and that the 80-year-old president needs to “show up” at the border to in a demonstration of support for the impacted communities and the beleaguered members of law enforcement.

“I don’t know why they keep avoiding the border and saying there’s other things, more important things, than visiting the border. If there is a crisis, show up. Just show up,” and exasperated Cuellar said.

“Just showing up at the border would send a strong signal to the communities that he’s there, he cares about the border communities. Just show up! It doesn’t take much to just show up at the border,” Cuellar pleaded.

This guy is off the plantation.

The narrative is that there is NO border for bidEn to visit, ergo, no visit.

He’s going to get a visit from CornPop for his insolent behavior.

Biden doesn’t care about the country.

Why would biden visit the border if the plan is working the way the left has planned it all along?

To them it’s not a bug....it’s a feature.

It’s time some of these politicians get that through their heads.

Joe Biden is such a panderer to minorities that he wouldn’t do it.

He will be on his umpteenth vacation in a few days. No need to bother with some silly border.

It’s amazing to me that Cuellar still has a job.

People there must be pissed, even though they’re Democrats.
Maybe they’ll learn, but I doubt it.

Oh my, this Democrat and the Democrat governor of California are starting to break ranks, but they'll never admit that Trump was right all along. That would be like the sin of sins for Democrats and say they believe in God-D.

Only reason Biden won’t go there he doesn’t want people see the cartels greeting him for all the work he gave them.

The BORDER has been out of control since Jan 20, 2021.

I think Henry is part of the Cuellar family that founded the El Chico restaurants. My dad would often drive us to the original one in Dallas, at Davis and Zang on Fridays in the 1950s. It’s still in operation!

Henry’s district is in the RGV and, though a Dem, often shows he has a commonsense streak.
