President Biden's first visit to the U.S.-Mexico border received an icy response.
Over the weekend, Texas governor Greg Abbott (R) met Joe Biden at the border where he hand-delivered a scathing letter blaming the President for the disastrous situation at the border.
In his letter, Abbott slammed the president's visit as “$20 billion too little and two years too late.”
“Your visit to our southern border with Mexico today is $20 billion too little and two years too late,” the letter read.
The Texas Governor accused Biden of intentionally avoiding border towns that have suffered the brunt of his policies, instead opting to visit towns that have been “sanitized” of the chaos.
“Even the city you visit has been sanitized of the migrant camps which had overrun downtown El Paso because your administration wants to shield you from the chaos that Texans experience on a daily basis,” Abbott wrote.
“Your open-border policies have emboldened the cartels, who grow wealthy by trafficking deadly fentanyl and even human beings,” he said. “Texans are paying an especially high price for your failure, sometimes with their very lives, as local leaders from your own party will tell you if given the chance.”
Speaking to reporters later Sunday, Abbott said Biden's border visit is “nothing but for show unless [the administration] begins to enforce the immigration laws already that exist in the United States of America that are contained in the letter that was provided to the president today.”
A clip of Gov. Abbot handing Biden the letter has gone viral on social media after being watched by over 300,000 people.

Biden probably didn’t even know he was at the borders! A loser who doesn’t care about our borders and the people who live there and protect it. Evil little cockroach!
The only policy proposals needed are to enforce immigration laws already enacted and secure the border. Anything else said is nothing but lies. They want amnesty and that is their only goal
Well Jagoff Joe will read the letter , for propaganda purposes only , but will do nothing about it . Why ?, because Joey is a total (B)asshole who thinks he and his handlers know best how America should be governed and will deliberately ignore or circumvent trample and destroy long standing American laws and policies in order to re-image this nation to their ideals and I dare say communistic views and policy’s .What we have as our commander and chief is a brain dead from the rump up , senile , diaper pooping pawn doing the bidding of a few millionaire puppeteers paying big bucks to a cabal of greedy politicians to complete what was begun during the Obama administration when he failed to ,”fundamentally”change America . The money people of the world want control and America , the richest nation in the world , stands in their way of a one world government that they can control and ultimately the money and wealth of said world .Central Government !
Joe doesn’t care as long as he gets his cut. He has ruined Hunter for life. Most of us don’t trust him.
The “New World ODOR” (I say odor because of its distinctive smell, especially unpleasant) wants all borders destroyed.
Typical MSM reaction. “Joe showed his continuing focus on resolving immigration issues.”
No mention that his policies caused the mess.
