As you know, the hot new vacation destination for many congressional Democrats is to go to El Salvador and attempt to visit with Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was in the U.S. illegally and deported back to his home country.
Politico has a story today about how the Democrats think this could be a winning issue (they must not have paid much attention to the most recent election results), as long as they can manage to not make it look like they're prioritizing illegal alien gang members over law-abiding American citizens.
But the story makes it abundantly clear that the Dems know they can't make this a "winning issue" if the focus is on the person who was in the country illegally and a member of MS-13, but rather, ironically, on rule of law and due process.
Illegal immigration and border security were top issues for voters in the November election. The National Republican Congressional Committee knows that the Dems are walking into disaster (again) and it looks like they want to help facilitate the backfire in a nice show of bipartisanship:
Come on, Dems, take 'em up on this offer!
The NRCC is offering to pick up the tab for any House Democrat eager to hang out with their new poster child in El Salvador, a confirmed illegal immigrant, MS-13 gang member, and alleged domestic abuser.
We just have one condition: Livestream the whole thing. Snap plenty of selfies with your MS-13 buddies — the same violent criminals you’re trying to reimport into American neighborhoods to rape, kill, and terrorize law-abiding citizens.
“If out of touch House Democrats are so desperate to cozy up to violent gang members, the least they can do is let Americans watch the show. We’ll pay for the plane tickets, they just can’t forget to smile for the camera while they sell out their constituents.”— NRCC Spokesman Mike Marinella
Maybe the NRCC should add a round of margaritas to sweeten the deal.
Yep, keep spotlighting the Dems' "priorities," Republicans!
Editor's Note: The Democrat Party has never been less popular as voters reject its globalist agenda.
