Dem Rep. Garamendi: Harris ‘Did What She Was Supposed to Do’ with Border
Breitbart ^ | 08/10/2024 | Ian hatchett

Posted on 08/10/2024 9:34:05 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

On Friday’s broadcast of NewsNation’s “The Hill,” Rep. John Garamendi (D-CA) stated that 2024 Democratic presidential candidate Vice President Kamala Harris “did what she was supposed to do” with her assignment on the border.

Garamendi said, “I think she has a very, very good argument to make on the border. This border czar issue is just incorrect. She was given a very specific task of dealing with the Central American countries. She got about $5 billion into those countries and a very, very significant reduction in the number of asylum seekers leaving those countries. So, in that sense, she did what she was supposed to do. Going forward, yeah, immigration is going to be an issue. But, frankly, the Republicans and Trump have a very severe problem. The bipartisan bill…border guards, dealing with the necessary processes of those people, also providing ways of shutting down, all of that was in the bipartisan bill. And guess who killed it? Donald Trump, all by his little lonesome, killed that major effort and the billions of dollars that were going to be spent to shore up the border. So, he has a vulnerability. When it comes to that debate. I will guarantee you she’ll put that right back in front of him and say, why did you kill the bill that could have made a major effort into solving the problem?”

That is correct.She had specific instructions from Rat Party Headquarters to allow at least 10 million wetbacks into the country and that’s exactly what she did.

“”She got about $5 billion into those countries and a very, very significant reduction in the number of asylum seekers leaving those countries””

Who accepts responsibility for picking us up off the floor after falling from our chairs from laughter reading just the first few sentences of that bilge? How difficult was it to send $5 billion dollars to “those countries” and call the job DONE? Furthermore, how do we know THAT was ever done? We were told she made A TRIP to one or more Central American countries but I don’t remember hearing that she took suitcases full of OUR MONEY with her!

I think we all know how it feels when we want to fool ourselves about something we have done but good grief, how does one do it ALL THE TIME - with EVERYTHING?

Why doesn’t Garamendi invite a dozen MS-13 types to live in HIS house?

This is what is currently hailed as a ‘moderate California democRAT’.

A border wall with Dems in charge would do absolutely nothing.

The Dems have really been pushing their border bill as if it secures the border. Trump and his folks (and ads) need to hit this head on and make it perfectly clear that what that bill does is legalize leaving the border largely wide open with tiny limitations. Trump needs to say that her plan to simply declare that illegals are now legal and that that takes care of the border crisis is horrible, and he’s very proud of helping to stop the Democrat’s open border bill and to fight for secure borders instead.

Whoop’s!
When you brought up “lip service” in an article on Harris I thought that you’d be going in another direction.

He is probably correct. It sounds like her job was to give the central american countries a whole lot of money. She didn’t really have a management job. Not like really doing something. That might make her out to be incompetent or something.
