President Joe Biden tried on Tuesday to blame Donald Trump and the Republican Party for the border crisis — but the attempt quickly failed.

For years, the Biden administration denied there is a crisis at the border and Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has repeatedly claimed the border is "secure." The White House has stood on these claims despite overseeing record-setting illegal immigration.

But Biden is now trying to blame Trump and the GOP for the crisis that unfolded under his watch.

In a speech about the so-called border bill — which gives three times as much taxpayer money to Ukraine than to the border crisis — Biden asserted that if the bill fails to become law, Trump and Republicans are responsible for the chaos at the border.
