A CNN panelist called out the horrendous and insensitive comments MSNBC hosts made regarding illegal immigration in the United States.
On Tuesday, following Biden’s lackluster results from the primary election, MSNBC hosts Jen Psaki and Rachel Maddow cackled at American voters who are concerned about the millions of illegal aliens entering the country.
Recent polls found that the issue of immigration is among the top concerns Americans have.
During the CNN segment, Republican strategist Doug Heye told the CNN panelist that Psaki and Maddow’s reaction could cost President Joe Biden the 2024 presidential election.
When I’m outside of Washington, the two issues I hear about the most are Biden’s age — Biden can’t do anything about that — and the border. Biden can do something about that. It is overwhelmingly a vulnerability for this administration, and I think in Washington, they don’t get it. Outside of Washington, Democrats get it more and more. I was watching MSNBC for a little bit on Super Tuesday and there was a panel of hosts and they were all sort of laughing. ‘Well, Virginia’s a border state with West Virginia, so of course they’d be worried about the border. Hahaha.’ Eric Adams gets it. Kathy Hochul’s starting to get it, and if Washington — if the liberal intelligentsia that informs this White House can laugh this off or think they can, they’re in for four more years of Donald Trump.
Conservative political commentator Megyn Kelly also reacted to the heinous remarks from the MSNBC hosts, saying that “they’ll learn in November.”
“American citizens committing crime is one thing,” Kelly began. “We don’t applaud it. We don’t want it. We try to punish it, in certain jurisdictions. But we don’t have to deal, we shouldn’t have to deal with illegals coming over here and committing crimes. Even one is too many. As this girl – her family is still mourning, that grave is freshly dug. And they are out there sneering about how migrants don’t commit crime.”
Kelly was referring to the 22-year-old Georgia nursing student who was killed by an illegal migrant while running in broad daylight just one week ago.
In December, Customs and Border Protection (CBP) recorded the highest number of illegal alien encounters, with more than 302,000 attempting to cross the border.
