During her first visit to the United States border on Friday, Vice President Kamala Harris had the audacity to blame the Trump administration for the ongoing border crisis.

For the record, President Donald Trump advocated for strong border security including a border wall that Democrats, including Harris herself, refused to support.

“We inherited a tough situation,” Harris said. “We have looked at a system where people have been housed in inhumane conditions over the last many years… In five months, we’ve made progress.”

What Harris didn’t care to point out was the fact that the “inhumane conditions” were due to the overpopulation of the border facilities because the Biden administration welcomed illegal aliens into America.

The numbers don’t lie either. Border crossings in the month of May were up 674% from May of 2020. Is she seriously trying to blame Trump?

WATCH:

 

Harris’ attempt to blame the Trump administration for the border crisis is laughable to say the least considering she literally tried blocking virtually every pro-border security effort President Trump tried promoting.

Harris, who was placed to be in charge of the border crisis, clearly knows she is failing and is desperately trying to divert attention.

Check out what NPR reported:

Vice President Harris is visiting the U.S.-Mexico border Friday in El Paso, Texas, after weeks of badgering by Republicans and at the urging of some Democrats.

Harris is in charge of the thorny issue of migration from Central America at a time when the government has struggled to keep up with record numbers of people seeking asylum at the southern border.

In March, President Biden tasked Harris with addressing the root causes of the migration crisis, a role he had when he was vice president during an earlier spike in border crossings. Although the White House was careful to emphasize that her role was meant to be a diplomatic one, working with the Central American countries driving the arrivals, critics immediately asked why the “border czar” was avoiding the border. That’s not actually a title she ever had.

The Biden administration had intentionally avoided having Harris visit the border until now, though as a senator from California she had made the trip.

RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel also had some choice words to say to Harris in a op-ed with Fox News.

“After months of laughing off the Biden border crisis while migrants drowned in the Rio Grande River, border crisis czar Vice President Kamala Harris is making a visit to El Paso, Texas,” she started.

“The numbers tell a clear story about how bad this crisis truly is,” McDaniel continued. “There were over 180,000 border crossings in May alone — a 674% increase from May 2020 and the highest total in 21 years. Authorities at the Texas border have seized enough fentanyl to kill 21.5 million people, and fentanyl seizures in 2021 already surpassed those recorded in 2020.”
