The National Border Patrol Council, the largest Border Patrol union across the country, endorsed former President Donald Trump over Vice President Kamala Harris in the upcoming presidential election as the border crisis continues.
“America, I have a message for you,” Border Patrol agent Paul Perez, who is the head of the union’s Local 3307 chapter in Arizona. “If we allow border czar Harris to win this election, every city, every community in this great country is going to go to hell.”
“The untold millions of people, unvetted, who she has allowed into this country that are committing murders, rapes, robberies, burglaries, and every other crime, will continue to put our country in peril,” Perez said. “Only one man can fix that. That is Donald J. Trump.”
Biden announced on March 24, 2021 his appointment of Harris “to lead efforts to stamp migration across the U.S.-Mexico border.” He reportedly asked Harris to focus on Mexico and the Northern Triangle — El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras, countries that will “need help stemming the movement of so many folks, stemming the migration to our southern border,” Biden said.
“On behalf of the 16,000 men and women represented by the National Border Patrol Council, we strongly support and endorse Donald J. Trump for President of the United States,” the organization posted on their X account on Monday.
A September poll from American Greatness reported Harris had a 1% lead in a head-to-head matchup among likely voters, which is well within the calculated margin of error the poll reported.
Twenty-three percent of voters surveyed said they are not firmly decided and are willing to change their minds before November.
Nevada voters prefer Trump to handle national security efforts by a +9% lead. They also prefer Trump over Harris on border effort 56-34%, a 22 point lead.
