Lindsey Graham And Ted Cruz Mocked As GOP Armed Border Tour Backfires
Sens. Lindsey Graham, Tom Cotton, Ted Cruz, and other Republicans believed it would be a great photo-op to explore the border in an armed boat. They were incorrect.

The mocking has actually been speedy and serious:

A lot of abundant middle-aged white people toss on some camouflage and believe that they are making a political point about the border by rolling down the river sluggish enough for electronic cameras to capture them while doing their finest to look hard.
The ballot has actually turned on migration. Americans desire more migration, not less, and simply 8% of those surveyed state it is the most essential problem in the nation.
Republicans are attempting to make a concern out of something that over 90% of the nation doesn’t appreciate, and those who do care desire more migration, not less.
The little promotion stunt that Senate Republicans pulled backfired on them by demonstrating how undesirable and out of action they are on this problem. Republican politicians still haven’t found out that when they operate on hard-line migration positions, they lose elections and humiliate themselves.
