President Donald Trump reiterated a statement he made in this month’s joint address to Congress that securing the U.S.’s southern border only needed a president who would prioritize this topic, suggesting his predecessor, former President Joe Biden, could have done the same if he cared.

Trump sat down for a one-on-one interview to discuss his first two months back in the White House, during which his drastic uptick in border security was one of several topics addressed. The president was asked if it would be possible to repurpose some of the manpower allocated to securing the southern border, as well as if the U.S. even needs “new laws and new money” to further change at the southern border, prompting Trump to suggest the nation would not need “very many new laws” since he was able to keep the border secure during his first term.
