Makes You Wanna Puke

The “Border Czar” trope. Another mirage, another steaming pile. A nothing burger cooked up by the dimly lit minds of Donald Trump and his handlers.

Why not, in their thinking, commandeer a bipartisan effort on border security and attendant details, stop it in its tracks, and appropriate it as a contrived campaign issue?

Republicans are spending millions trying to drive home this fabricated tale, and the sad part is that it’s having some effect because people keep seeing it on the TV and hearing about it from Trump and Vance and the rest. It’s a variation on the strategy that says to keep telling people they’re not seeing what they’re seeing, or hearing or feeling.

It’s Grade A deception, insidious, slimy and manipulative. In short, right up Trump’s alley.
