ALPERN AT LARGE - Although I certainly wish there were two different and younger individuals running for President this year, it’s not hard to conclude that it’ll be a Trump/Biden rematch.
To that point, it’ll be a tough call to determine who will win…yet an even tougher call to determine who opens his mouth to throw out the bigger verbal gaffes amd whoppers…Donald Trump or Joe Biden?
Everyone knows that when Trump opens his mouth, he very often helps Biden…yet cannot the same be said for Biden opening his mouth and helping Trump?
A huge whopper statement, as AOL/The Hill reports, Joe Biden says the border hasn’t been secure for the last 10 years (LINK: ).
Well, ain’t THAT rich! I’m not really certain which is the truer statement:
1) Trump got elected because he promised to build a wall on our Southern border, and may get re-elected because the problems at our Southern border have worsened considerably after he left office.
2) Biden has proven Trump right, because on his watch both Vice-President Harris and Secretary of Homeland Security Mayorkas have overseen our border problem morphing into a full-fledged crisis.
Here’s a couple of other statements in question for which is the truer one:
1) Trump made it clear, and is again making it clear, that illegal immigrants are not welcome in the U.S..
2) Biden made it clear, and is again making it clear, that illegal immigrants are very welcome in the U.S.
Two questions:
1) Are not the Democratic Mayors of New York, Chicago, and Denver screaming about a nonending flow of migrants arriving from the southern border interfering with their budgets and resources?
2) Closer to home, if there was a proposition/ballot initiative in California to deny Sacramento’s granting illegal immigrants free health care, would it pass?
Two more questions:
1) Does the multimillion (some accounts are over 5 million) count of illegal immigrants since Biden entered the White House make our homeless problem better, or worse?
2) Who do Americans favor more to access our resources, native-born veterans and others out of a job and/or home, or illegal immigrants who broke our laws just to get here?
Which will lead to two final questions:
1) Was the southern border much, much more closed under Trump, or during this current day under Biden?
2) Will the border issue catapult Trump back into the White House?
Because if I’m reading our news correctly (and I read both from the Left as well as the Right), is Biden proclaiming that the southern border being the same under his watch as when Trump was in office a guaranteed way to eject himself from the White House, in favor of his nemesis and predecessor Trump taking his place?
