For the First Time In History, a Majority of Americans Support Building a Border Wall
Gallup: 86% Of All Americans Say the Border Invasion Is an "Important" or "CRITICAL" Issue
People are finally losing their cowardice.
A recent Monmouth University poll reveals that a majority of Americans now support the construction of a southern border wall, with 61% viewing illegal immigration as a 'very serious problem'. This marks a significant shift in public opinion compared to previous years, reflecting growing concerns over immigration policies under President Biden's administration.
Key Details:
The Monmouth University survey found that 53% of respondents favor building a border barrier, a significant increase from 35% in September 2017.
61% of Americans view illegal immigration as a 'very serious problem', with a majority of Republicans (91%) and independents (58%) agreeing with this sentiment.
Despite the growing support for a border wall, Democratic support for the policy has fallen 14 percentage points in the past nine years.
Diving Deeper:
The Monmouth University survey, released on Monday, shows a marked shift in public opinion regarding the construction of a border wall. In September 2017, months after former President Donald Trump took office, 60% of Americans were opposed to a border wall, with only 35% in favor of construction. However, the recent poll indicates that 53% of respondents now favor building a border barrier, while opposition has dwindled to 46%.
Update:
I just came across the news that Gallup finds that the border invasion is Americans' top concern.
New Gallup poll finds a record-high number of Americans believe illegal immigration is a "critical threat" to the nation's vital interests. Voters are clearly blaming President Joe Biden and his band of leftists for the invasion the nation has endured over the past three years.
The latest survey of more than 1,000 adults nationwide, conducted Feb. 1-20, shows 55 percent of U.S. respondents believe that "large numbers of immigrants entering the United States illegally" is a "critical threat" to the nation -- up 8 percentage points from last year's poll. The significant majority of Americans deeply concerned about illegal immigration surpasses the previous high of 50 percent recorded in 2004, according to Gallup.
"Significantly more Americans name immigration as the most important problem facing the U.S. (28%) than did a month ago (20%)," the famed national pollster notes. "Immigration has now passed the government as the most often cited problem, after the two issues tied for the top position the past two months."
Concern over the illegal immigration crisis is at the highest level in the 40-plus years Gallup has been tracking the issue.
55% call it a "critical" issue, and 31% call it an "important" one.
Gee that sounds like a supermajority to me.
While Fake Jake Tapper cries that Republicans are, get this, exploiting the Democrats' stubborn, anti-democratic refusal to execute the public will (see video below the fold), Trump promises that
he'll deport "ALL" illegal alien criminals.
Former President Donald Trump reacted Monday to the alleged murder of University of Georgia (UGA) student Laken Riley by an illegal migrant, stating that he would set up the largest deportation operation in U.S. history.
Trump took to Truth Social to condemn President Joe Biden for allowing the 22-year-old woman's murder to occur, blasting the administration for the influx of illegal immigrants coming into the country and committing crimes.
"Crooked Joe Biden's Border INVASION is destroying our country and killing our citizens!" Trump wrote. "The horrible murder of 22-year-old Laken Riley at the University of Georgia should have NEVER happened! The monster who took her life illegally entered our Country in 2022 ... and then was released AGAIN by Radical Democrats in New York after injuring a CHILD!!"
"When I am your President, we will immediately Seal the Border, Stop the Invasion, and on Day One, we will begin the largest deportation operation of illegal CRIMINALS in American History!" Trump continued. "May God Bless Laken Riley and her family!!! Our prayers are with you!"
Some people, including commenters here, pointed out that the AP article about this savage murder (and possible sexual assault)
focused laser-like on the real problem: Young women running alone without a chaperone.
AP also referred the illegal alien killer as an "Athens (Georgia) resident."
The killing of a nursing student out for a run highlights the fears of solo female athletes
Doesn't highlight any other well-grounded fears, huh?
Carol Capps runs regularly in the forested area of the University of Georgia campus, where the body of a 22-year-old nursing student was found earlier this week after she was reported missing from a morning run.
Capps, 24, said the trails around Lake Herrick always seemed safe, a place where she could get away from traffic and go into the woods for some mental clarity.
But that sense of peace was shattered after authorities on Thursday found the body of Laken Hope Riley and arrested Athens resident Jose Antonio Ibarra, 26, on suspicion of murder. The victim and suspect did not know each other, and University of Georgia Police Chief Jeff Clark called the killing a crime of opportunity.

"The scariest thing about it is it could have been me or one of my friends," said Capps, a store associate at Athens Running Company. "It feels like a place has been taken away from me."
It's the place that killed her, not the illegal alien.
Just like it was an SUV that ran down hundreds of white celebrants at a Christmas parade, not a vicious anti-white black racist killer.
...
Riley's death has once again put the spotlight on the dangers female runners face. Previously, the 2018 death of University of Iowa student Mollie Tibbetts while out jogging prompted an outpouring from other women who shared their tales of being harassed and followed.
Not that AP would ever report this, but
Mollie Tibbets was ALSO murdered by an illegal alien.
It's just these damn solo female joggers! That's the real issue here!
Crime statistics indicate that these types of attacks are rare, but they underscore the hypervigilance women must take when going out, even for a run on campus.
Not as rare as they could be.
...
Running groups and women's forums have offered tips on how women can try to stay safer while exercising: Run during daylight hours or with a friend; avoid headphones; carry pepper spray or a whistle; make sure your phone is charged; mix up running routes; inform a friend of your whereabouts and check in with them when you're done.
How about "voting for a secure border and a country that deports vicious illegal alien criminals?"
Nah, huh?
...
But Callie Rennison, a professor of criminal justice at the University of Colorado who studies violence against women, wishes there was more emphasis on teaching men not to assault women rather than telling women what they should or should not do.
You mean teach
American men not to assault women? This guy is from Venezuela. He illegally crossed the border in 2022.
Do you mean coordinating with the Venezuelan government to teach their people not to assault women when they break the law to get into America?
...
Capps, who has been running since age 13, said she is careful to be aware of her surroundings. But she also does not think Riley could have done anything to ward off what appears to be a random act of violence.
It's not random. It's planned. The Regime wants this.
As his fake presidency dissolves away like the cells of his dying brain,
Biden scrambled to finally go to the border.
Here's the fun thing: Instead of going to a place where Biden's invasionary force of illegals are heavily crossing, he's going to a place where illegal alien traffic is
very light.
So he's going to one of the least-open parts of the border. I'm sure that's just a coincidence.

Interesting that President Biden has chosen Brownsville/Rio Grande Valley sector for his visit. It has been slow there for months. Only getting around 200-400 per day across all of RGV sector recently. Yesterday was 314 encounters.
Meanwhile, San Diego & Tucson sectors BUSY in blue states w/ typically 1,000-2,000ish per day. Biden's last visit to the border was in El Paso *after* a huge surge of illegal crossings where the streets had been cleared of migrant camps and the visit was highly sanitized - Biden did not see or talk to a single migrant, nor did he visit a Border Patrol station. We'll see if this time Is different.
Spoiler: this time will not be different.
Now you might not believe this, but illegal aliens
consistently express a preference for Joe Biden over Donald Trump. Which seems incongruous, because they keep telling me that Trump is responsible for Biden's open border, and Biden really wants to close the border but Republicans keep stopping him from doing so.
A recent Fox & Friends segment featuring interviews with illegal immigrants revealed a unanimous preference for President Joe Biden over former President Donald Trump. The video has sparked discussions on immigration policies and their political implications.
Key Details:
The segment that aired on Fox & Friends showcased a series of interviews with illegal immigrants.
Interviewees unanimously expressed a preference for Biden's immigration policies over Trump's.
The segment has fueled debate over the impact of current immigration policies and their political resonance.
And here's that promised video of Fake Jake ranting about Republicans attempting to represent 60% of the public on an issue important to them.
How underhanded of them to represent the popular majority policy that is being frustrated by a defiantly-unresponsive oligarchy!
