Largely due to the intransigence of Congressional Democrats — and more than a few establishment Republicans — President Donald Trump has received very little legislative cooperation with his efforts to secure our nation’s porous southern border with a wall.
As such, it was announced Wednesday that National Guard troops would soon be deployed in the border states to provide necessary assistance to an overworked and understaffed Border Patrol agency, until such time as sufficient progress on the wall had been made.
Border Patrol agent Art del Cueto, president of the Border Patrol Union in Tucson, Arizona, and vice president of the Border Patrol Council, said Wednesday on Fox News that border agents were “very grateful” with the support they were being given by the president, as well as Trump’s focus on securing the border with a wall where necessary.
As to the oft-promised by Trump — and much-maligned by the left — border wall, del Cueto summed up its necessity with perhaps the best quote on the topic we’ve ever heard, using the analogy of locking the front door of a person’s home.
