Harris to accuse Trump of ‘playing political games’ with immigration in border visit
Kamala Harris will use the stop in Douglas, Arizona, to call for tougher border security, while once again emphasizing Donald Trump’s role in killing the bipartisan border deal earlier this year.
Today, Vice President Kamala Harris is all set to take a shot at Donald Trump while touring the United States- Mexico border and stated that Trump is trying to play politics with immigrants. Harris has proposed a comprehensive legislative plan regarding major border objetos as a part of her presidential campaign for 2024; she has also pointed to what she sees as Trump’s disruption of bipartisan work on border security. This will be her first trip to the border as a presidential candidate. However, experts noted that it has been due to constant aggression from Trump and his supporters from time to time, where she was depicted as a weak candidate in addressing this issue.
An Arizona border town, Douglas which has been an epicenter of a governmental battle over immigration is part of Harris’ selections in establishing the increasing need for security measures, the employment of more border agents, and better technology used in the fight against fentanyl and human smuggling. She is likely to call for an immigration reform package stressing the fact that Trump singlehandedly scuttled a bipartisan border security measure. According to Harris, Trump intentionally scuppered the deal to keep immigration as an issue rather than trying to seek a solution.
At the same time, Trump has increased attacks on Harris, describing her more recent visit to the border as a ‘stunt.’ Still, he focuses on the immigration problem, accusing the Biden-Harris administration of promoting the flow of illegals and extolling his incipient performance, including large-scale deportation initiatives. This ping-pong on immigration has continued to be one of the staples of the 2024 campaign, and the public data suggest that Trump has an advantage over Harris on this issue. It is getting increasingly blurred who is more immigration-friendly in the run-up to the 2024 election, with both sides describing themselves as the only ones capable of efficiently dealing with the crisis.
