At tonight’s rally in Sarasota, Florida, former President Donald Trump slammed President Joe Biden for the crisis at the southern border and accused him of demolishing American sovereignty there.
In a clip shared by Newsmax, Trump reminded attendees that “Three days ago I traveled to the southern border to witness Joe Biden’s demolition of American sovereignty first hand, you saw that, what a demolition it was.”
Trump then explained the steps he took to establish the boundary between the United States and Mexico and what he believes Biden has done to destroy that.
“When I left office, we had the most secure border in US history…but now Joe Biden has intentionally dismantled the border,” Trump explained.

We previously reported on Trump’s visit to Texas and the southern border:
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) held a roundtable discussion with former President Donald Trump yesterday as well as other various events throughout the day.
During the roundtable discussion, Abbott praised the former president for his work on the southern border while he was in office.
In a clip of Abbott speaking while seated next to Trump, the GOP governor said, “One of the things that he did better than anything else and definitely better than any other president, is he stepped up and he secured our border and kept Texans and Americans safe.”
Abbott began, “Let me start out by saying what a pleasure it is to have President Trump back in the great state of Texas. He’s a great friend to Texas, he’s a great friend of mine, when I was governor and he was president, any time I called upon the president he was there to step up and help our fellow Texans.”
After the praise that he gave Trump for his time as president, Abbott lamented that, “Things have changed so quickly and so dramatically under the Biden administration, it has been amazing and disastrous.”
“For one, if you just look at the year over year numbers, look at this May versus last May, the increase of people coming across the border that have been apprehended have gone up 800%,” Abbott explained.
Abbott then criticized Vice President Kamala Harris for her work as the border czar and that she has been “misleading” Americans, doubting that even if she can supposedly fix things in the three countries that she has been focusing on, there are still others that will have citizens attempting to cross the border.
