As President Donald Trump prepared to visit California in a push for stronger border security, his re-election campaign released a new video on April 5 deriding Democrats for their dismissal of what Trump has been describing for several months as a crisis along the U.S.-Mexico border.
The minute-long video featured clips of a number of 2020 Democratic presidential contenders including Beto O’Rourke, Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) publicly refuting that there was a crisis on the Southern border. At the same time, it showed footage of Obama-era experts and media figures admitting that there actually is an undeniable emergency happening now.
