Here is a transcript for anyone who can't watch the video.
Not a fan of the democrats trying to position themselves further right than republicans on border policy. Maybe now would be the time to challenge the migrant problem as a systemic issue, countries which we destabilize to this day. 4D chess sure lol but not a great look telling fascist republicans they were right all along about border security.
I have a dream. that one day this world will rise and say, "america, youre fucking wrong!"
...and, for once, we will care.
Well, that’s what Kamala has been doing for a lot of the past few years: going to many central and South American countries and trying to figure out the systemic causes. Not being a “border czar”, as the right likes to claim.
Trying to pass that ghastly border bill was really just a political ploy the democrats knew the republicans would kill and that the dems knew they could use against the republicans later— and now’s that time. And it couldn’t have worked more perfectly.
Certainly, if Kamala wins and dems get control of the house, they’ll pass something far more reasonable.
A convicted felon or a worthy presidential candidate.
In a sane(er) world this wouldn't even be considered a choice.
