The Border Talking Point With Two Wrong Turns

Trump’s border attack takes two wrong turns at once: it treats Kamala Harris as if she never visited the border, then hands her the grand title of “border czar.” The premise being circulated here says both parts fail. That is not a complicated policy debate; it is a basic reality check. Geography still matters, and a narrow assignment does not become an official title just because cable news repeats it with enough forehead veins.

This is what happens when campaign shorthand replaces paperwork with yelling. The map says one thing, the job description says another, and the political operation keeps pointing harder, as if volume can move El Paso into another state. Ordinary voters deserve public records that mean what they say, not flag-draped labels manufactured for the afternoon outrage cycle. Apparently, the campaign fact-check department was staffed by a man yelling at a map.
