As we mentioned earlier, many Democrats who were sounding the alarm about “kids in cages” when Donald Trump was president are being strangely quiet now that photos of current conditions at the border have been made public:

And that leads us to Republican Sen. Mitt Romney, who says he’s baffled by the Biden administration’s reaction, or lack thereof:
The Biden administration’s lack of understanding of the power of incentives continues to baffle me: allowing unaccompanied minors to stay in the U.S. will yield a flood of unaccompanied minors. It’s de facto ‘child separation policy’.

“Baffled”? Well, considering that Biden basically invited everybody to flood the border during a presidential debate, it shouldn’t really be very baffling, senator:

Mitt Romney didn’t endorse in 2020, and he voted “guilty” on one impeachment charge during a Senate trial, so he certainly wasn’t an impediment to Joe Biden becoming the U.S. president:

If only you were smart enough to see the disaster Biden's immigration policy was going to be while you were submarining Trump for years.
