#Trump repeated his claim, made countless times during the 2024 campaign, “many from prisons & mental institutions” had illegally entered the country through the southern border. He has offered no evidence for this.
(I still think he doesn’t understand the meaning of “asylum seekers” he thinks they are people from insane asylums)

With his opening lines that “we will not allow ourselves to be taken advantage of any longer,” #Trump plunges into a list of #grievances, describing America as a nation willing to spend “in the defense of foreign borders” — read: #Ukraine — “but refuses to defend American borders.”
This is a redux of his 2017 “American Carnage” address: He describes America as a catastrophic mess of crime & chaos.
He speaks of “annihilation” & disparages the current government — w/ #Biden sitting nearby.
#Trump calls his election a mandate to end “a horrible betrayal” & declares that “America’s decline is over.”
#Biden has a slight smile on his face as Trump talks about betrayal. He was no doubt ready for a speech that would denounce his admin.
Biden & Harris are watching as Trump promises to declare an emergency at the border & gets a standing ovation from many in the Rotunda. Biden is watching w/his hand over his mouth. Needless to say, neither is applauding.
