It takes years to build a bridge. It takes minutes to blow it up.
Obama had a bridge successfully in place. TRUMP BLEW IT UP.
Presidents Clinton, Bush Jr and Obama spent years building up the systems to stabilize the nations of Central America that had been destabilized by earlier Republican administrations, especially Eisenhower (via the Dulles brothers, John Foster and Allen, who served as his Secretary of State and CIA director respectively), Nixon and Reagan.
The successful efforts culminating in stabilization support and strengthening the oppressed indigenous Mayan communities had brought illegal border crossings down to a FORTY YEAR LOW. The bridge had taken decades to build, but it was working well.
Then, suddenly and with neither warning nor transition, Trump just cut the cord. Just cut off all the support and stabilization efforts that we had implemented to help reverse the decades of failed policies that had previously destabilized the region.
As a result of TRUMP’s disruptive and failed policy, the bridge was blown up, and all of a sudden we had massive caravans of desperate refugees amassing along our southern border, mostly consisting of indigenous Mayans.
By the time President Biden was sworn in, illegal border crossings, which had been brought to a FORTY YEAR LOW until Trump blew up the bridge, had swollen to a new TWENTY-YEAR HIGH.
Kamala Harris, daughter of immigrants and hailing from the state with the most Latinos, is uniquely qualified to restore the previous success. She has already met (via Zoom) with the presidents of Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador and Honduras. Stabilization aid is being restored and the numbers of illegal border crossings are already plummeting.
But it takes years to rebuild the bridge that Trump blew up and, while construction has commenced, conservatives have a lot of nerve to complain that, in 113 days, we have not cleaned up the entirety of the DISASTER CAUSED BY TRUMP.
