An unexpected and hilarious moment unfolded during former President Donald Trump’s visit to the U.S.-Mexico border in Eagle Pass, Texas on Thursday.
Trump and Biden each visited border entry points in Texas on Thursday, with Trump joining Governor Greg Abbott in Eagle Pass while Biden met with Border Patrol officials in Brownsville. Over the last several weeks, Texas has been involved in a standoff with the Biden Administration after state law enforcement and national guard personnel seized control of a public park in Eagle Pass.
Texas officials have refused to allow federal agents to access the park while law enforcement and national guard personnel have constructed land and water-based barriers. Governor Abbott also signed a law that will allow Texas border security personnel to detain illegal aliens, though a federal judge issued a temporary injunction against the policy earlier this week.
