President Joe Biden’s claim that it was “highly unlikely” the Taliban would overrun and own the whole of Afghanistan will go down in history as one of the worst judgments in presidential history. But it was nothing new. Biden has been equally incompetent all along in his handling of the southern border — it just took a catastrophic failure like the one in Afghanistan to draw attention to how incompetently he is performing in other areas.

Even worse, the danger from Biden’s misjudgment at the border hits much closer to home.
