WASHINGTON (AP) — The video shared by former President Donald Trump features horror movie music and footage of migrants purportedly entering the U.S. from countries including Cameroon, Afghanistan and China. Shots of men with tattoos and videos of violent crime are set against close-ups of people waving and wrapping themselves in American flags.
“They’re coming by the thousands,” Trump says in the video, posted on his social media site. “We will secure our borders. And we will restore sovereignty.”
In his speeches and online posts, Trump has ramped up anti-immigrant rhetoric as he seeks the White House a third time, casting migrants as dangerous criminals “poisoning the blood” of America. Hitting the nation’s deepest fault lines of race and national identity, his messaging often relies on falsehoods about migration. But it resonates with many of his core supporters going back a decade, to when “build the wall” chants began to ring out at his rallies.
President Joe Biden and his allies discuss the border very differently. The Democrat portrays the situation as a policy dispute that Congress can fix and hits Republicans in Washington for backing away from a border security deal after facing criticism from Trump.
But in a potentially worrying sign for Biden, Trump's message appears to be resonating with key elements of the Democratic coalition that Biden will need to win over this November.
Roughly two-thirds of Americans now disapprove of how Biden is handling border security, including about 4 in 10 Democrats, 55% of Black adults and 73% of Hispanic adults, according to an Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research poll conducted in March.

The Ass Press and the Yahoos think the invasion of America by XenoCriminals illegally operating in America is a good thing and NOT ALARMIST. The Feddies are spending billions on Student loans, illegal aliens and the circlejerk in the Ukraine while trying to figure out how much trouble they’ll get in if they stop Social Security and Medicare FOR THE PESKY AMERICANS.
Right.
“...alarmist...”.
Written by an author who is arguably sleeping through the world’s loudest clock radio alarm. Or, for the young among us, sleeping though the most hellatious-sounding cell phone alarm.
Alarm? For enforcing existing immigration law?
“They’re coming by the MILLIONS ! thousands
lol
I agree! if ONLY they were starving!
The ONE defining characteristic of the poor is America is how uniformly obese they are!
Well duh? Most people are afraid of those who are different.
Everybody in the country experiences the affect of constant mass immigration (legal or not). They will look even more stupid for telling lies about it. It’s a big loser for them. So they will try to change the subject.
Tell you what. Let’s go back to what caused those $1.80/ per gallon gas prices and no inflation. Now get your mask on. Go back to commercial establishments either closed or with significantly reduced hours. Toilet paper, cleaners and meat shortages. A president in the hospital with the Rona virus (not taking medicines he earlier recommended). Half of the country acting like rear ends, the other half hiding under a rock. An escalated death count. Deniers taking their last breathes. You see. There was a reason for all those good times.
Do you miss $1.72 a gallon when Obama was in office(Jan. 2016)?
Desanctimonious is still not running....
Miss the gas prices but not Obama
I distrust him even more than Trump.
That happened in 2020.
Deep State’s base defected.
That’s why it’s had to steal elections and import foreign voters.
It isn’t ‘alarmist’ when it’s the truth.
I can see that. Just pointing out DJT isn’t the only one to have low gas prices. And Obama didn’t do it with a massive pandemic.
So why did it not keep going down. Did Covid cause production to increase to the point of being a net exporter of gas products? That is a really weak excuse.
Would rather have $1.25 under GW Bush. Trump would have prices under $3 in 6 mos by eliminating the rediculous regs.
What regs are impacting gas prices? BTW, I paid 3.02 this morning. Pretty close to $3.
Actually, being a net exporter happened under Obama when all the shale extracted oil hit the market. And output plunged during covid. Because both domestic and global demand was in the crapper. Thats a big part of the recovery price spike. Producers were dragging their feet turning the valves back on.
Our resident FR Democrat Party operative misses Obama - you can see him plugging for Odiousbama, the love of his life, all throughout this thread, while bashing on Trump and DeSantis.
