The President is heading to the border. This is a good idea. But it would have been a better idea if he had brought Chuck and Nancy with him. They are certainly the farthest things from border security experts. They could have learned a lot from the real experts. Even without the President. Chuck and Nancy need to go and learn something. They need to talk with those who actually have a clue. Chuck and Nancy know nothing about border security. They should go. Today.
You know he admitted that he didn’t want to go to the border (or even give his Oval Office So Sad So Terrible speech,) but was talked into it. I believe he called both a publicity stunt.
They’re driving in and they’re not coming through checkpoints, because you can’t have three or four people in the back with tape over your mouths and your hands tied and drive past someone who is checking out your van . . . The fact is if we don’t have barriers, walls, call them what you will, very strong barriers where people can not any longer drive right across. They have unbelievable vehicles. They make a lot of money. They have the best vehicles you can buy. They have stronger, bigger and faster vehicles than our police have and that ICE have and that Border Patrol have.
I hope Trump goes down to investigate these vehicles. In fact, if what he’s saying is true (even thought it’s incoherent), we need to get these people into the US so they can share their superior vehicle technology with us.
So what’s he going to do at the border? Look at the fence that’s there already? Sit around and be bored? Or totally manhandle by himself the invisible horde that is clearly besieging our country?
Trump needs a great deal of learning opportunities on pretty much every subject. Perhaps he should go work on those while his intellectual and moral betters do their jobs.
If I were a betting man, I would say he is going to talk to border agents and leaders so that he can use their feedback to promote his cause. Chuck and Nancy should go so that they can learn what is needed from the experts. They don’t have to promote it. But they do have a lot to learn.
