There is no such thing as an Immigration czar.

Like that old saying… “You can’t argue with crazy”

Quick comment Rory – Harris was never "Border Czar"…it's actually not a position that exists…point of order only!

The question was why Biden hadn't eliminated the China Tariffs if they were so bad. The answer is simple, but takes a minute to explain. That's when she chose to ignore directly answering the question so she could bait trump. Kamala set trump up. She jabbed again and again at his ego"s biggest vulnerabilities & insecurities, then threw that left hook to his gut.Trump SO fell for the "rally size" bait. You can see it in his eyes at that moment. It switched his brain from somewhat tempered/disciplined trumpf (that could've won the "expectations" game) ,into full-blown nonsensical Trump-rally lunatic rant ("they're eating the cats"?!!🙀) while she watched as his wheels came off.. And THEN she throws him her laugh!!👍🤣🤣🤣🤣 I realize trumpf is pretty easy to trigger, especially by a strong woman, but the extent of his reaction surprised even her. She totally took control of the debate and Trump's 🧠 Trump never recovered his "debate composure". It totally turned the direction of the debate, and negated the advantages of muting the mikes. Trump's supporters don't see that. they ❤️ Trump unhinged. But they aren't her audience. It's the undecided voter she wanted to expose unhinged Trump to. And she succeeded.
It's scary how easy it was. Imagine how much easier it is for someone like Putin, whom Trump WANTS to please.. 🤔😳😬🥴

As for the question about tariffs she didn't get to why Biden hasn't ended Trump's Chi-NA tariffs, so I'll do it here.

The reason is that those tariffs became part of an agreement with China to end Trump's trade war. An agreement that trumpf sold us out on, but an agreement that the US signed onto under Trump. Unlike Trump, in order to protect the integrity of America's word, Biden will stick with a predecessor's agreement (even one he didn't agree with). At this point, he's waiting to see if China is going to follow through on their part of the bargain. To do anything else would be foolish, and only serve to undermine America's integrity and resolve. Same was true with Trump's lousy deal with the Taliban. As long as the Taliban adhered to their end of the deal, Biden was obligated to follow it to reinforce America's good faith & credit in all things.
Trumpf, on the other ✋️, has had no such qualms in reneging on America's obligations if they were an impediment to him, his billionaire supporters, or putin; thereby undermining America's international reputation and alliances.

The "Border Czar" got stopped by Trump with one phone call, when he told his party to reject an immigration bill that would have helped a lot. One of the authors was one of the most conservative members of the Republican Party. Trump has extended the problems at the border, and made things worse… all so he would have immigration to run on. His sadism is showing very clearly.

Voters who are still undecided are still undecided about whether the planet is round or not.🙄
