The Result

What Trump Did

The defense might suggest that the focus should be on creating safe and legal pathways for migrants rather than assigning blame.
Why Supporters Credit Him
Supporters might argue that Trump's policies, while controversial, were aimed at securing borders and ensuring safety. The defense admits that the intention was to deter dangerous crossings, but the tragic outcomes reveal a need for a different approach.
The Supporting Record
The defense might argue that the ongoing crisis in migration is a global issue, exacerbated by factors beyond any single administration's control. The defense might suggest that addressing root causes is crucial for long-term solutions.
The Limitation or Competing Explanation
