Two things can be true at once. First, President Trump has done an impressive job of fighting back against the border crisis with exactly zero Congressional help. Second, even with those efforts, our border is in shambles. It has been in shambles since the 80s, and the Democrats have worked tirelessly to keep it that way for decades.
What you need to understand is that this isn’t an accident or happenstance. Millions of illegal crossings can’t happen every year unless they have help. That’s doubly true for migrants coming from south of Mexico. It takes multiple stages of security failures and outright aid to the migrants for this problem to reach what we have seen.
Think about it. Could you walk from Guatemala to Texas without help?
Michelle Malkin just released a book tackling this very subject. In her research, she found out exactly who is helping the migrants.
This isn’t a handful of misguided volunteers who genuinely believe they’re doing right. Opening our borders is a genuine industry, and it’s making a select group of people billions of dollars.
If you really want to understand why our borders remain open, you need to know what Malkin uncovered. You can read her book, or you can get the highlights from her in this video. Either way, ignorance is something you can’t afford to maintain.
