The Trump Make America Great Again PAC recently informed its supporters of an intriguing claim: migrants waiting at the southern border in Mexico purportedly expressed a preference for Joe Biden’s reelection, as reported by The New York Post.
According to interviews conducted by The Free Press with migrants awaiting entry into the United States, individuals like Richard Betancourt, a 46-year-old pipefitter from Venezuela, expressed concerns about their prospects under a potential Trump administration.
Betancourt conveyed apprehensions about being admitted into the country if Trump were to remain in power. Similarly, Daniel Cortez, a 45-year-old mechanic from Honduras, voiced his preference for Biden’s reelection while waiting in Matamoros, Mexico.
The issue of immigration has become a central topic as the election approaches, resonating strongly with many Americans. A recent Gallup poll highlighted immigration as one of the nation’s most pressing concerns.
Additionally, the surge in border crossings has posed financial challenges for various large cities, including Denver, Chicago, New York, Massachusetts, and Washington, D.C.
To reinforce its message, the Save America PAC referenced Rodney Scott, a former Border Patrol chief who served during the Trump and Biden administrations.
In February, Scott, speaking on Fox News, criticized President Biden’s approach to border security, asserting that the administration had dismantled the progress made under Trump through a series of executive actions.
