Republicans have repeatedly questioned why the vice president refuses to visit the Southern border or speak publicly about the border crisis. Interestingly enough, the view that Harris should go down to the border is a bipartisan one.
Democrats, too, want to see Harris make a visit to the border. Folks on the left with this perspective maintain that a Harris border visit will show that the Biden administration is serious about fixing problems within the immigration system.
Will the Southern border crisis impact the midterm elections?
The ongoing border crisis remains a serious issue in the United States. It is therefore easy to ascertain that Harris’ failure to visit the border or present solutions to fix the crisis will impact midterm elections.
Republicans are already focusing on the districts that they’ll need to regain the House majority. The GOP, amid labor shortages, a dismal jobs report for April 2021, the border crisis, etc., has plenty of ammunition to censure the leadership of Democrats.
