If the Biden administration had hoped to make a serious impression on how to deal with problems along the southern border of the United States through Vice President Kamala Harris’ “visit”, it is safe to conclude that it has ended up a failure.
Texas Governor Greg Abbott (R) knows that more effort could have turned out to be something really useful.
Harris did not speak to Texans whose homes have been invaded, who have weapons brandished against them, whose property has been destroyed by gangs and cartel members crossing the border.
He has not spoken to the families destroyed by the Fentanyl smuggled into Texas.
She does not care. https://t.co/8hC3oQFUev

The New York Post calls the trip what it was, as Texas Sen. John Cornyn (R) points out.
