When we were at the Yuma border a year ago we talked to a group of rank and file Border Patrol agents and one thing I said is, look, we are the Congress. We cannot enforce the laws. We write laws so what laws do you need us to write?
The Chief of the Border Patrol told us at Eagle Pass that he says, I am standing in front of an open fire hydrant with a bucket. I do not need more buckets. I need somebody to shut off the fire hydrant.
What really frightens me is what happens to our country when Trump--if Trump narrowly loses the election and the case is then overturned and repudiated and exposed by the higher courts. That could tear our country apart.
