Florida's Ron DeSantis slams Biden's 'disastrous' border policy: 'Trump had it right'

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis slammed President Biden’s "disastrous" immigration policy on Saturday amid an influx of migrants coming to the border.

"But I think that this is intentional, I think it is ideological," DeSantis continued. "I think they’re getting bit by this politically now," but he said he thinks it’s something the administration anticipated. "Biden is going in the absolute wrong direction. Trump had it right at the border, Biden’s got it wrong." "Our per capita COVID mortality is less than the national average and far less than lockdown states like New York, New Jersey and Illinois." "It’s a disastrous way to start an administration," DeSantis said of Biden. "I think most of the American people are going to be strongly opposed to this and hopefully they’ll reverse course." DeSantis noted that during his time in office Florida has "banned sanctuary cities" and instituted E-Verify, a web-based system that helps employers assure that their employers are legally eligible to work in the U.S.
