A new survey finds that a majority of Americans think Kamala Harris supports open borders.
That explains why Democrats and the media have been hounding her for days, trying to claim that Harris was never Biden’s border czar. They all know Harris is very vulnerable on this issue. They also know this is the top issue for voters in the 2024 elections.
Actions speak louder than words. Everyone can see that for three and a half years, Harris has done nothing to stop the millions of illegal immigrants who have been crossing the border. She can’t simply say she cares about this issue now and expect to be believed.

New poll dampens Democrats’ hopes that voters will forget Kamala Harris’ record on immigration
A newly released survey shows that an overwhelming majority of registered voters view Vice President Kamala Harris as a supporter of “open borders.”
A Harvard-Harris poll released on Tuesday showed that 69% of voters believe Harris supports open borders, further demonstrating her vulnerability on immigration as she begins her presidential campaign. Voters across the political spectrum also broadly agree, with 56% of Democrats, 82% of Republicans and 69% of independents saying they believe the vice president supports open border policies. Most people think the vice president supports an open-border policy.
Only 31% of voters said they believed Harris was opposed to open borders, including just 44% of Democrats. Respondents also rated immigration as the second most important issue facing the country, surpassing the economy, health care, crime and many other national problems.
Meanwhile, respondents to the Harvard-Harris survey overwhelmingly opposed the idea of open borders, with 68% of voters answering that they opposed such a policy. By party lines, Republicans and independents are sharply opposed to the idea, while Democrats are almost evenly divided, with 51% saying they support open borders and 49% saying they are opposed.
The issue is so important that Harris is now trying to convince voters that she is stronger than Trump on it.
JUST IN: The Harris campaign released a new ad claiming border czar Kamala Harris is tougher on illegal immigration than Donald Trump.
The gaslighting here is crazy.

No one believes this. It is simply ridiculous for Harris to suggest such a thing.
