Former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo critiqued President Joe Biden’s management of the U.S.–Mexico border on Feb. 9, holding that the president’s policy decisions on that front had been made in error.
“It was a mistake for President Biden to open the border without having a plan to handle the tremendous flow of people,” Cuomo said on the Feb. 9 episode of his weekly “As a Matter of Fact” podcast. “Politicians make promises in campaigns—that’s what they do. But government officials, professionals, need to understand the consequences of enacting those promises.”
