Trump Slams Biden on Border Crisis, Saying US Has Turned Into a 'Rats Nest,' Claims Migrants Are Housed in 'Luxury Hotels'

Trump repeatedly criticized Biden during the CNN Presidential Debate for his handling of the border crisis, saying it has turned the US into a "rats nest" and is "killing our people." Biden defended his policies, saying the situation is better than when Trump left office. He pointed to a recent executive order that has led to a 40% drop in encounters and said the administration needs more funding and reform from Congress to fix a "broken" system. Trump contrasted the treatment of veterans to how migrants are being housed in "luxury hotels" and receiving benefits. He also criticized the amount of drugs like fentanyl crossing the border.
