DC Mayor Muriel Bowser's alarm about influx of illegal immigrants collides with tweet that's aging badly

Washington, DC Mayor Muriel Bowser had previously declared a state of emergency after busloads of illegal immigrants arrived in her city courtesy of Texas Gov. Greg Abbott. Perhaps Bowser should consider sending them to Martha’s Vineyard, but in the meantime the DC mayor thinks this should have remained a problem for Texas along to handle:

Buck Sexton is among those noticing that Democrat politicians don’t like it when they’re exposed to the consequences of the policies they support. It’s supposed to be somebody else’s problem:

Fascinating to watch so many high profile democrats say out loud that the ongoing tidal wave of illegals is a big problem that they insist somebody else handle https://t.co/ZHXdAlkv1S

And with that, Bowser’s tweet from 2017 is aging wonderfully:

DC values our DREAMers and our immigrant communities – all will continue to find sanctuary in our city. #DACA https://t.co/EPxKtG0kwO

There’s yet another compare and contrast for the “How It Started / How It’s Going” Hall of Fame.
