Washington Post - No migrant surge at the border.

Interesting article. Could all the shrieking and gnashing of teeth be delusional?

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/03/23/theres-no-migrant-surge-us-southern-border-heres-data/

The migrant ‘surge’ at the U.S. southern border is 

actually a predictable pattern.


Evidence reveals the usual seasonal bump — plus some of the people who waited during the pandemic

" What we’re seeing right now is a predictable seasonal shift. When the numbers drop again in June and July, policymakers may be tempted to claim that their deterrence policies succeeded. But that will just be the usual seasonal drop."

The Trump cultists are desperate to rip Biden's flesh no matter what. I was watching Fox the other day and they were discussing how it was right and proper now to ridicule everything Biden was doing. They claim they don't even need to make a reasonable case, and indeed they never do. This is the burning hatred of the Despicables on display. I wish they could verbalize what it is they hate so much, but I fear rationality isn't one of that groups' virtues.
