Highlights
It's even simpler than this.
Citizens of any country believe a government is responsible for a few key things. Chief among them are reliable electricity, clean water, and secure borders. Even having a strong military doesn't make the list for many countries, but having secure borders makes the list for all countries.
The Biden administration allowed for a very strong perception (regardless of the reality) that our southern border was NOT secure, that the people crossing the border were not simply poor Mexicans looking for a better life, or migrants from Central America seeking opportunity. The perception (and perhaps reality, but that's irrelevant) is that there is a large and growing number of people coming from China, Africa, or elsewhere that are ending up on the southern border and entering the United States without our knowledge, without being identified, without being documented, fingerprinted, etc. That is unacceptable to all Americans. That's why the border crisis matters to people in Montana or New Hampshire, far from the southern border.
Most people want America to remain a land where people seeking a better future can come and build a life, legally, and we recognize that it won't just be scientists and rich people coming to America – that people come here when they are at their lowest point, desperate for a better life for themselves and their family. When your partners on the left recognize this, and drive toward real reform, with a secure border, votes will come back, too.
1/ I have many hopes for the Trump administration, including one I've given up on from the Biden administration. The signing of a 123 Agreement with Saudi Arabia. It's critical for America that KSA work with the USA and not China on a nuclear program.
