On the theory that you can judge a president by his critics, Donald Trump must be hitting the bull’s-eye with his warnings about the migrants vowing to smash through our border.
Consider that a trek started with fewer than 200 people in Honduras suddenly ballooned to more than 7,500 as reports emerged of left-wing activists organizing the crowds. Photos of the staggeringly long lines and breaking down fences between Guatemala and Mexico demonstrate there is legitimate reason for concern, especially when some leaders say they are determined to come to America.
“We are going to the United States,” one shouted, The Post reported. “Nobody is going to stop us!
Against that messy backdrop, the caravan could motivate additional Republican and independent and some Democrats voters to back GOP candidates in the midterms.
The same phenomenon with the caravan among other things, is providing a timely reminder that, 21 months into Trump’s presidency, our southern border is still Swiss cheese.
The Dems’ fear of that outcome is huge. Stopping illegal immigration has been a popular part of Trump’s formula since Day One because it simultaneously bolsters both his economic and public safety agendas.
Trump is using the caravan to attack Dems over the failure to tighten the border. Schumer, Waters, Warren, and Pelosi, all are absent from any comments for or against.
