Fact checking Biden's claim there are fewer border crossings today than when Trump left office: True, needs context....

Trump is up 50 points over Kamala on who will best deal with illegal immigration .

90+ percent say inflation and immigration are top issues.

Trump is going to the border on DNCs last day.

Biden did NOT “ADD” jobs after Covid shutdowns.

People RETURNED TO THEIR JOBS.

HUGE DIFFERENCE.
