Medved: Immigration is not a conservative or liberal issue

Mar 19, 2021, 5:23 PM

Michael Medved told KIRO Radio’s Gee and Ursula Show that President Biden must be clear with the American people about stopping the flow of unauthorized entry into the United States.

“People always bring up the idea that this is the worst it’s been at the border for 20 years,” Michael said. “That may be technically true, but it’s worthwhile looking back 20 years ago to the way things were during the Clinton administration. During the Clinton administration, we had something very close to open borders. The rate of flow across the border was virtually unimpeded and it was enormously worse.”

Michael points out that it got better under Bush and better under Biden. The idea that Trump cleaned up the southern border is not true, he said.
