Former GOP lawmaker calls out Trump for false claims on border crisis resolution
Donald Trump claimed he has resolved the border crisis before taking office, stating that Mexico's president agreed to close the border in response to his proposed tariffs. However, President Claudia Sheinbaum disputed this, saying Mexico is already managing migrant caravans. Former Republican congressman Joe Walsh criticized Trump, calling his statements lies. He noted that Mexico is conducting a significant crackdown on migrants, resulting in fewer undocumented migrants at the U.S. border than during Joe Biden's presidency. Walsh expressed frustration over Trump's behavior, stating that the president often makes false claims to assert control. He emphasized that the situation is not new and criticized the ongoing pattern of misinformation.
