Cruz: Biden Kept Just One Promise
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) Slams President Biden for Broken Promises on Border Crisis
During a recent visit to the U.S. southern border with former President Donald Trump, Sen. Ted Cruz called out President Joe Biden for failing to fulfill his campaign promises, except for one – the complete dismantling of the border.
Biden’s visit to the border came only after Trump announced his own visit, and he chose a section with minimal illegal immigration. In contrast, Trump went to the epicenter of the border crisis that Biden’s policies have caused.
“Joe Biden campaigned on open borders, promising not to deport people or enforce our laws,” Cruz stated on his podcast after touring the border. “And unfortunately, that seems to be the only promise he has kept. The situation at our border is indefensible.”
Cruz expressed his horror at the plight of children and families affected by the border crisis, criticizing Biden for avoiding the reality by not visiting the most affected areas. He questioned whether Biden saw the victims of sexual abuse, violent rape, or families mourning the loss of loved ones due to drug overdoses.
“Over 100,000 Americans have died from drug overdoses in the past year, with 70% of it being Chinese fentanyl coming across our southern border,” Cruz continued. “Did Joe Biden listen to the grieving parents? No. His visit was nothing more than a sanitized photo op, designed to hide the suffering and dishonestly portray the situation.”

How has President Biden’s approach to immigration and the border crisis further divided the nation?
Ose to visit a part of the border that was least affected by the current crisis. This move by Biden clearly showcases that his visit was merely a publicity stunt, aimed at appeasing critics and portraying himself as taking action, when in reality, he has done nothing substantial to address the border crisis.
One of President Biden’s key promises during his campaign was to bring about unity and work towards the betterment of the country. However, his approach to immigration and the border crisis has only served to further divide the nation. By rolling back many of Trump’s policies, such as the Remain in Mexico policy and ending construction of the border wall, Biden has created a situation where illegal immigrants are flooding across the border, overwhelming detention facilities, and putting a strain on resources.
Senator Cruz has been a vocal critic of Biden’s handling of the border crisis, and rightly so. In a recent tweet, Cruz stated, “Biden promised to secure the border. He has now created the worst border crisis in history. This is a humanitarian and national security disaster.”
Cruz’s visit to the border with former President Trump was a powerful statement of solidarity and opposition to Biden’s failed policies. Cruz highlighted the stark difference between Trump’s firm stance on border security and Biden’s weak and ineffective approach. Cruz rightly pointed out that Biden’s policies have emboldened human traffickers and drug cartels, who are taking advantage of the situation and exploiting vulnerable individuals.
The border crisis is not just an immigration issue; it is a national security issue. With illegal drugs flowing across the border and criminals exploiting the chaos, it poses a significant threat to the safety and well-being of American citizens. Yet, Biden’s administration seems more focused on undoing Trump’s policies than actually addressing the crisis at hand.
Cruz’s criticism of President Biden is not simply a political stance; it is an acknowledgement of the reality on the ground. The border crisis is real, and it is taking a toll on the country. It is time for the Biden administration to put politics aside and take decisive action to secure the border, protect American citizens, and address the root causes of illegal immigration.
In the face of the border crisis, Senator Ted Cruz has taken a leadership role in holding the Biden administration accountable. His visit to the border with former President Trump was a reminder that actions speak louder than words. It is essential that we have leaders like Cruz who are willing to stand up for the security and well-being of the American people.
President Biden must recognize the seriousness of the border crisis and work towards finding effective solutions. Slams from Senator Cruz and other critics are not mere political attacks; they are a call for action and a demand for accountability. The American people deserve better than broken promises and a border in chaos. It is time for President Biden to prioritize the safety and security of the nation and take immediate action to address the crisis at the border.
