Harris heads to the US-Mexico border to try to show that her record is more than Trump criticisms

PHOENIX (AP) — Vice President Kamala Harris on Friday will make her first visit to the U.S.-Mexico border since becoming the Democratic presidential nominee to confront head-on one of her biggest vulnerabilities ahead of the November election.

She is scheduled to appear in Douglas, Arizona, as former President Donald Trump and his fellow Republicans pound Harris relentlessly over the Biden administration’s record on migration and fault the vice president for spending little time visiting the border during her time in the White House

Immigration and border security are top issues in Arizona, the only battleground state that borders Mexico and one that contended with a record influx of asylum seekers last year. Trump has an edge with voters on migration, and Harris has gone on offense to improve her standing on the issue and defuse a key line of political attack for Trump.

What is with the smug expression? Does she think she can fool Americans? I don’t think she can do it on immigration, even with the help of the propaganda media.

Harris is well beyond too late....nothing she does or says now will alter the damage and danger she has put this country and it’s people in.

It’s a little bit late. The country has been destroyed financially and culturally as well as become extremely dangerous from terrorists and criminals.

Good. Will only draw attention to the open borders policy she and Biden supported.

to confront head-on one of her biggest vulnerabilities ahead of the November election.

Her record on the border is set in stone, and even if she lived at the border until election day, the border crisis brought up under her administration would still be one of her biggest vulnerabilities.

It's like a serial murderer who at the very end of his life, finds God and wants forgiveness for his many sins.

If she isn't AT the border then she still hasn't gone to the border.

Going to a border town isn't going to cut it.

She’s going to the Border again?

Why she’s been once. Only once. In 2021. Isn’t that enough to tick the box indicating the Border Czar has done her job?

Can't wait for her "word salad" lies after her visit. Should be worth a couple of laughs...or tears. If she says anything negative, it will be Trump's fault.

There was a post I can't find that had a graphic from the Heritage Foundation showing the decreasing illegal problem with Trump, and the increasing illegal problem with Biteme's policies. Can anyone guide me to it?

So odd. She’s highlighting one of her most miserable failures. She must want to lose.

“culture is] the best which has been thought and said” from Matthew Arnold’s Culture and Anarchy.
When our educators inculcate wokeness, not knowledge in students—and that not very well because most of the class speaks Spanish, it is difficult to imagine “sweetness and light” for our children and grandchildren.
This woman represents everything bad in our culture: a DEI token who will obey her masters’ voice, iow, more of the same destruction we have seen the last 4 years.

I wonder if she’ll go down there with no security? Walking the streets of Matamoros alone. I wonder what would happen to her?

“In nearly every campaign speech she gives, Harris recounts how a sweeping bipartisan package aiming to overhaul the federal immigration system collapsed in Congress earlier this year after Trump urged top Republicans to oppose it.”

The Trump Campaign really needs to fight back on this in a campaign ad. Not only does to dispel this crap but it show what a phony Harris is.

Also, this article is nothing but a campaign ad for Harris by AP. No attempt to explain why Trump did not support the border bill and many attempts at trying to say Trump’s attacks on Harris are wrong.

Perhaps a short walk to Nogales for some shopping.

Revealing how bad the bill was would help Trump, therefore the silence.

Is it really that dangerous to walk or drive around in Mexico as an American? I’ve not been there ever. I recall reading about people celebrities vacationing in Acapulco and it being a desirable resort area.

After that token appearance, she will return later that night to stand on a runway to block the incoming illegal alien flights her administration is running.
