Oh really? DHS chief under Obama has a border assessment that sounds VERY familiar [video]

President Trump has declared an emergency at the border, saying that it’s a crisis that has grown out of control and action needs to be taken:

Many Democrats have dismissed Trump’s assessment of what’s happening at the border, but Jeh Johnson, DHS secretary under Obama, sure seems to agree with Trump when it comes to the severity of the problem:

Obama’s DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson says that if over 1000 illegal immigrants are apprehended in a single day, it "overwhelms the system."

Somebody’s not cooperating with the preferred Democrat narrative!

I love the dumb looks on their faces at the end: "ehm, what do we say to that……"

Just last month congressional Democrats (as well as some in the media) were accusing Trump of manufacturing a border crisis. Johnson sounds like he disagrees with that.
