Another Trump distraction when we should be pushing for real solutions, like passing the border bill. Worth noting, my opponent Rep. Garbarino, was wasting time and effort on this. That’s probably why the current Congress has passed the least amount of legislation ever. People want real solutions from elected officials, not tickets to the circus " (x.com)
