Trump tears into Biden from turning the most secure border in history into a ‘disgrace’ and demands Biden take a cognitive test during trip to Texas with GOP Gov. Greg Abbott

  • Donald Trump is visiting his southern border wall with Texas Governor Greg Abbott on Wednesday in the Rio Grande Valley
  • He blasted President Joe Biden’s immigration policies calling the influx in border crossers ‘a disgrace’ 
  • ‘We had it down to a science,’ Trump said of his administration’s immigration policies, boasting ‘there has never been a border so secure’  
  • He published an op/ed just before the trip where he blamed Biden for the immigration crisis
  • Wrote Biden ‘has purposely and systematically dismantled its own defenses to invite millions of foreign migrants to enter its territory and break its laws’
  • Trump is going to Weslaco, Texas, which is 800 miles from El Paso, where Vice President Kamala Harris visited on Friday 

Former President Donald Trump said during a press briefing in Texas Wednesday that President Joe Biden is responsible for the migration crisis because he didn’t finish the border wall.

‘We had it down to a science,’ Trump said of his administration’s immigration policies, boasting ‘there has never been a border so secure.’

‘It’s a disgrace,’ he added, of the influx of border crossers under Biden.

Trump arrived in a rainy and overcast McAllen, Texas on Wednesday to survey part of his border wall upon the invitation of Texas Governor Greg Abbott, a fellow Republican.

In a briefing in nearby Weslaco ahead of visiting a portion of the wall, the former president took the opportunity to rail against voter fraud, lash out at the media, blame Biden for the massive influx of illegal migration and praise his own immigration policies.

‘We have a sick country in many ways. It’s sick in elections and it’s sick in the border,’ Trump said.

Trump gave kudos to Abbott and other Texas officials gathered for the briefing for helping secure the southern border.

He also gave a shout-out to his former White House doctor, Ronny Jackson, who now represents Texas in Congress.

‘And there’s my doctor right over there, my doctor,’ Trump said. ‘He said, “You know sir, if you want, you’re really smart, you ought to take the cognitive test,”‘ Trump recalled. ‘But he did a test. Did I ace it? I aced it,’ the ex-president continued, adding ‘I’d like to see Biden’ take it.

Trump added that the first few questions are identifying animals.

‘He’s gonna have a little hard time,’ Trump said of Biden. ‘I think he’s going to have a hard time with the first few, actually.’

Trump said if Biden wanted to continue his successes with border security, he shouldn’t have stopped construction, which included plans to paint the wall.

‘You could have completed the wall in a couple of months,’ Trump said in the briefing.

‘They were supposed to paint the wall and they didn’t even do that,’ he said of the Biden administration.

Reports during Trump’s presidency revealed he would micromanage how he wanted the border wall to look, down to the small details of color and materials.

Prior to the trip, Trump also praised his southern border in an op-ed, where he blamed Joe Biden for the near 700 per cent rise in illegal immigration from last year.

‘This is perhaps the first time in world history a nation has purposely and systematically dismantled its own defenses to invite millions of foreign migrants to enter its territory and break its laws,’ the former president wrote in a Washington Times op/ed.

Wednesday’s trip was Trump’s first to his border wall since leaving office.

It also comes five days after Vice President Kamala Harris visited El Paso, Texas after months of criticism for not visiting the border since Biden in March put her in charge of addressing ‘root causes’ of mass migration.

Republicans were enraged when Harris decided to visit El Paso, instead of the heart of the migration crisis 800 miles away in the Rio Grande Valley, where there are around 230 per cent more illegal crossings.  .
