After the news that President Joe Biden will sign an Executive Order today to toughen up border security, Felon 45 took to Truth Social to blast the move even though he has admitted to killing the bipartisan border bill earlier this year. The bill, penned in a bipartisan fashion, would have dramatically changed immigration law for the first time in decades, including a new emergency authority to restrict border crossings if daily average migrant encounters reach a certain level. There's more.
The bill would have created more than 1,500 new Customs and Border Protection personnel and allocated more than $20 billion to border security. Before we get into Trump's rant, here he is bragging about killing the direly needed bipartisan bill.
Lumpy is now lashing out at Biden even though Biden was forced to issue the EO after Trump killed the bipartisan deal.
"Crooked Joe Biden has totally surrendered our Southern Border," he falsely said. "His weakness and extremism have resulted in a Border Invasion like we have never seen before. Other countries have emptied out their prisons, insane asylums, and mental institutions, and sent us drug dealers, human traffickers, and terrorists."
"Millions of people have poured into our Country—and now, after nearly four years of his failed, weak leadership, Crooked Joe Biden is pretending to finally do something about the border—but in fact, it's all for show because he knows we have a debate coming up in 3 weeks," he added.
The EO was issued because Republicans did Trump's bidding and voted down the border bill. The fentanyl deaths and border crossings are all on Republicans. Congrats, guys. You finally did something.
The Executive Order will temporarily shut down asylum requests once the average number of daily encounters tops 2,500. 'Sleepy Joe' did that with no help from Republicans.
