Trump mocks Kamala Harris’ planned border visit in NYC presser: ‘Why didn’t she fix it almost four years ago?’

Former President Donald Trump mocked Kamala Harris’ planned visit to the border — just her second as vice president — arguing she’s had three years to solve the illegal migrant crisis.

Harris is expected to travel to Douglas, Ariz., on Friday and is planning to make a stop at the border to talk about increasing security.

“Why didn’t she fix it almost four years ago? She’s got no plans, got no talent, got no ability to do it,” the former president said Thursday during a press conference at Trump Tower.

The Arizona stop will be the first time Harris has seen the border as the Democratic presidential nominee.

She went to the border as vice president in 2021 amid pressure for her to see firsthand the processing centers.

“She’s going there tomorrow, after almost four years, she’s going there tomorrow to try and show you what a great job she did,” Trump argued in his remarks.

Harris has campaigned on supporting the killed bipartisan border bill that would have shut down the border if illegal border crossings topped 2,500 per week — but still would have allowed in about 1.8 million migrants per year.

“Donald Trump got word of the bill, realized it was going to fix a problem he wanted to run on and told them to kill the bill, don’t put it up for a vote,” Harris said in an interview with MSNBC on Wednesday. “He killed a bill that would have actually been a solution, because he wants to run on a problem, instead of fixing a problem.”

The Harris-Biden administration revoked several of Trump’s policies like Remain in Mexico and halted the further building of the border wall when they took office in 2021.

“You can’t justify she should save her airfare. She should go back to the White House and tell the president to close the border,” Trump said.

“He can do it with the signing of just a signature and a piece of paper to the border patrol. Instead, she’s going there to try and convince people that she wasn’t as bad as everybody knows she was.”

Trump vowed to “terminate all sanctuary cities,” stop Catch and Release, “shut down all entries through the migrant phone app” and reinstate Remain in Mexico.

He also said he would send federal law enforcement to “liberate” Aurora, Colo., which has experienced an uptick in migrants, crime and the gang Tren de Aragua.
