    “Has the White House considered the possibility that a terrorist could be in the country right now after crossing the southern border?”

    What a bullshit question. The core question is valid, “Has the White House considered the possibility that a terrorist could be in the country right now."

    But the rest is a bullshit political talking point, “…after crossing the southern border?”

    As if we only have one method for a terrorist to get in. Nevermind the northern border, the shores, air flights, and then the truly scary threat that the terrorists were born here and are citizens. But, screw all that, WhAt AbOUt tHe MeXiCaNs!?

    This framing shows that the asker has more interest in building support for a Republican talking point into the coming elections than giving a shit about terrorist threats within our borders (all of them).
