CNN, Dems go from denying border problem to blaming Trump in striking reversal

Pelosi, on the House floor Tuesday, decried the situation as "child abuse" and called it a "crisis" while accusing the administration of failing to provide adequate care to children in custody.

Media Research Center vice president Dan Gainor told Fox News that “the media strategy has shifted” as anti-Trump pundits and Democratic officials are now concerned with the number of people crossing the border.

“The press can't deny it anymore, even though they did just a few months ago,” Gainor said, adding they would use the tragic photo to blame Trump. “They won’t explain that its Democrats pushing open borders who have escalated this crisis by encouraging more people to enter the U.S.”

On April 8, 2018 CNN’s Brian Stelter opened his “Reliable Sources” show by hammering the point of the crisis being artificial while criticizing the decision to send in the National Guard.

“Hey, a manufactured crisis at the border,” Stelter said, according to a CNN transcript. “A story that symbolizes everything that's wrong with the Trump era. President Trump receives faulty information, then he makes impulsive decisions and his staff has to scramble. Ask yourself: why is there so much talk about the U.S.-Mexico border all of a sudden? Why are National Guard troops suddenly being deployed?”

Stelter went on to answer his own questions: “Trump wants a PR victory… as a result, we're all talking about the border. A manufactured crisis.”

Stelter has since changed his mind, and opened his media newsletter on Tuesday by noting “the humanitarian crisis at the border is back at the top of the national news agenda.” Media watchdogs took to Twitter, pointing out Stelter’s pivot and responding with an image of a chyron beneath the CNN media pundit that said, “A manufactured crisis on the border.”

 

The heart-wrenching image plastered on the New York Times’ front page has underscored the urgency of the immigration crisis.

The hypocrisy of the dems is on full display as they blame Trump for the crisis at the border when all this time they have refused to recognize the crisis or to deal with it. Now suddenly they see the light but it is all Trump's fault (who has been sounding the alarm all this time we have a crisis at the border)

the left has been playing such dirty asinine politics over this issue, as well as most others, that they are seeing it backfire on them.

They have little choice but to eventually start admitting the truths of some issues.

These deaths fall squarely on the Dems...shame it takes the loss of life for them to act.
