Texas Governor Invites Trump for Border Tour
June 16, 2021 at 9:44 am EDT By Taegan Goddard
Donald Trump will tour the states border with Mexico later this month, after accepting an invitation from Texas Gov. Greg Abbott to investigate what Trump termed an unmitigated disaster zone,' the Dallas Morning News reports.
The trip, on June 30, is an apparent response to Vice President Kamala Harris not visiting the U.S.-Mexico border amid ongoing tensions over how to address an influx of migrants.

hordes of desperate asylum seekers, wading across the Rio Grande, stopping for a chat and a selfie with Abbott and Trumpstello?..or drug cartels, doing business in broad daylight, with a wink and nod to the two binoculared morons?...or maybe the men and women running across the bridge, looking for work to feed their families...work like cleaning toilets, washing dishes, hauling bricks, digging ditches...you know, taking "our jobs"?...or do they expect to see la migra picking off migrants one by one like it's video game?....will this lunacy ever stop??!!!
