The Man Who Now Controls the U.S. Border
Mexico’s president gets to determine whether an immigration crisis dominates headlines in a U.S. election year.
He can, if he so chooses, intensify or calm the crisis at the border. In so doing, he will be able to shape to his will the mood over a central issue in the U.S. presidential election. By rejecting the Senate border deal at Trump’s command, congressional Republicans have maximized López Obrador’s sway over U.S. politics.
The U.S. needs to come to grips with the fact that our neighbor to the South is part of the picture regarding illegal immigration. Instead, we act like it's all about us...Far from it.
