Democrats split on how to respond to migrant crisis at southern border

Democrats are split on where they are placing blame for the spiraling crisis at the southern border, as Vice President Harris refuses to comment on the matter, claiming she hasn’t been briefed on the situation.

Liberal Democratic leadership has continued to deflect blame for the crisis on the policies of former President Donald Trump, while progressives remain opposed to the use of migrant detention centers and have expressed their dissatisfaction with Biden.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is standing by the commander-in-chief as of Wednesday, telling MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” Wednesday that, “the president has been in office not quite two months.”

“They are addressing it and it will improve,” the top ranking House Democrat continued, adding that they were “all impatient” to reunite children separated from their parents at the border.
