Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) said Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that the “majority” of Republicans delight in chaos at the U.S.-Mexico border because they believe it helps them politically.
Murphy said, “Republicans have had multiple opportunities to come to the table and pass immigration reform that would fix the problem at the border. My belief is while you have a small group of Republicans who want to engage, the majority of that party delights at chaos at the border. You saw some of my colleagues on Tuesday, as soon as votes were done, rush down to the border to take smiling photographs with the Border Patrol, essentially celebrating the fact that there was chaos because they believe there’s political gain to be had. I think Americans know it’s Republicans the, not Democrats sitting on the sidelines when it comes to fixing our broken immigration system.”

At least he admits "Chaos at the border", and the fact he is trying a lame talking point means the border chaos is polling very, very badly for Democrats.
Yep, and Cruz used that fact to throw down on an MSM reporter on Friday: "In 2020, the last year of the Trump presidency, we had the lowest illegal immigration rate in 45 years." Cruz is down there running for Trump's VP slot, straight up.
“Christopher Scott Murphy is an American lawyer, author, and politician serving as the junior United States senator from Connecticut since 2013.”
Could not make enough money as a para$ite so ran for Congre$$ where the real money i$ made.
EASY TO FLAP HIS GUMS WHEN HE IS A LONG, LONG , LONG WAY FROM THE CHAOS AT THE BORDER.
I have not heard delight from any Republican either. They actually care about Americans and people, unlikle democraps who caused all this.
I get it, can't bring Feinstein or Fetterman, you'd scare the kiddos.
Abbott needs to send 100 buses to CT.
“That’s funny. I’ve never heard of any Republican being delighted at the border chaos.”
I have not either. However, I bet some Democrats are happy about it. Look at all those future Democrat voters.
Honestly, I've lost track of their lies ... which one applies now?
Multiple opportunities for reform? We don’t consider amnesty to be reform.
What utter bullshite! It's the Democrats who have fought tooth and nail against a measure that would "fix the problem at the border" - a WALL!
What a sniveling piece of shit Chris Murphy is.
Create chaos and then smear it all over the opposition.
Thank the 17th Amendment.
Since it emphasizes the incompetence of the Biden administration, it has its advantages. But it ain’t delightful!
“True dat.”
Giving them all amnesty is not fixing the problem you scumbag.
These communists can say and do anything they want with the media in their corner.
The over is getting really hot.
