Surprise!

Also, everyone knows that Trump is going to try and capitalize on this and say something absurd about him ushering in a global utopia on day one of his presidency.

He will probably say he would've bombed Iran first had he still been in office.

EDIT: Wow. That was fast. Almost exactly what he said.

Trump is the ultimate choose your own adventure game. He’ll say whatever he thinks will get him elected and 5 minutes later say the exact opposite of that.

There's audio of him talking to a couple guys about the US ambassador to Ukraine, all they said was that she was talking bad about Trump and without hesitation he says "take her out". The people around Trump can stick their hand up his ass and use him as a puppet because he's dumb as shit

He's a god-damned mob boss. Which makes sense seeing as how Russian mafia money laundering propped up his businesses in New York and Miami.

That’s literally the democrats… ignored the border issue for 3 years, until this summer and now Harris went and posted for photos when she was heavily criticised for not doing anything 3 years ago…

Harris has no power over the border. In any case, the Democratic party alongside a Republican senator brought forward a border deal that would've secured the border. Republicans shot it down because they thought it'd hurt their campaigns.

The article is incorrect. She was tasked with stemming migration from the Northern Triangle: Honduras, El Salvador, and Guatemala. Her task wasn't related to the actual border itself, but diplomatic efforts with those countries to address the reasons people were fleeing those countries.

Notably, the proportion of migrants from those countries did decrease, but the GOP saw an opportunity to put the border as an albatross on the Harris' neck and took it, despite the missing nuance explained above.

In any case, again, Harris literally has no power over the border.

Thank you. So much misinformation that is bought hook line and sinker. I wish people could understand things like your comment.
