It’s Trump’s fault that the border is a mess and no new DHS secretary will change that – Washington Examiner

President Trump is never going to find whatever magic fix he’s searching for in a new secretary of Homeland Security. Kirstjen Nielsen, who resigned from the department Sunday after months of reports that the president was dissatisfied with her work, isn’t responsible for the chaos at the border. More than two years into his presidency, the blame is solely on Trump. It’s Trump who promised to build a wall. It’s…

Trump’s threat to close the border was just a trap for Democrats – Washington Examiner

President Trump had been vocally considering shutting down the southern border until he scaled back slightly on Thursday, giving Mexico one year to decide whether or not they’ll comply with his demands.

Indeed, senior staffers and Department of Homeland Security officials…
