Democrats can't lead our country without taking seriously the border crisis

"I voted for a fence, I voted …, and some of you won't like it, I voted for 700 miles of fence.” Former Vice President Joe Biden, currently leading the Democratic pack in the 2020 presidential race, confessed to this in a 2006 speech to a South Carolina Rotary club, noting that as a senator he had supported the Secure Fence Act.

Today, such a remark is considered a cardinal sin among the Democratic Party’s growing progressive base. Biden’s forced partial walk-back in commenting about his vote shows just how out of step a Democratic White House would be in dealing with our ongoing border crisis.

The situation in which Democrats find themselves on immigration has been fascinating to witness. In what might seem like an alternative universe, many Democrats once had a reasonable, rational response to illegal immigration and border security. They understood that an unsecured border is a serious issue that must be addressed through national security and economic lenses.

Large numbers of illegal crossings can put downward pressure on wages and make life harder for working-class Americans. Potentially dangerous individuals can cross the border and pose a serious threat to the safety of Americans. And there’s the issue of the continual flow of illegal drugs through Mexico into the United States.

In the past, Republicans and Democrats worked together to confront these issues — including, as Biden noted, by funding 700 miles of border fence and other security measures. But bipartisan cooperation has been upended as Democrats today largely choose to ignore the deteriorating situation at the southern border and offer unserious solutions to these pressing issues. They’d rather pretend a crisis doesn’t exist, even though the facts at ground zero paint a clear picture."

They are the ones taking it seriously.

It's the republicans who are ripping families apart, caging children, try to subvert the legal processes involved in asylum, having babies die in custody, p[laying "LOOK AT ME!!!" games with the US military at the border, etc...

Please be less stupid.

The Dems are SOOOO STUPID and they're on the way to losing another election and giving Donald Trump four more years. The only way they can win is to win over the moderates. To do this, they have to stop talking about Medicare for All, Free Tuition for all, Reparations, taxing the rich, forgiving tuition debt. I know these are issues the left embraces but if the Dems turn away from these issues, they WILL NOT lose support from their base. Does anybody think their base will turn around and vote for Donald Trump if the Dems no longer support these issues? GMAFB!!! But if the Dems DO voice support for these issues, they will lose the moderate vote and the 2020 election. Even Stevie Wonder can see this. Why can't the Dems?
