Have you ever thought that the President knows the immigration and border crisis is a winning campaign issue for him. Why would he not want this crisis to increase exponentially, as it has?

Of course he wants to appear that he is getting “tough” and he would be successful if it wasn’t for those MS-13 supporting Democrats and those ultra-liberal judges. But the ever increasing flood plays into his hands for campaigning and reelection.

Welcome to political calculus 101.

The other explanation would be that he has run the absolutely worst Presidential personnel management effort in history. A complete dunce about most of his top hires. It really is one or the other.

You forgot the third and most obvious explanation....

Trump has never been sincere about enforcing immigration law.

He has to get someone confirmed. Do any of you know how tough that is for Trump in DC?

He may have picks he likes but cannot get RINOs and RATs to confirm them.

No. The other option would be his own party doesn’t support the MAGA agenda (2016 GOP platform) and President Trump’s options are very limited. The Dems just can’t wait to trot out the “GOP can’t govern” talking point and POTUS can’t give them that with a GOP Civil War over the GOP donor class open border agenda.
