Pretty clear that VP Harris is going to the border only because Trump is going next week.

Even Democrats in the region had started to pressure her.

But there were plenty who made excuses for her, saying she didn’t go because prevention was her role.

What will they say now?

The @PressSec doesn't entertain the suggestion that the White House adjusted their schedule to beat Trump to the border: "We made an assessment within our government about what it was an appropriate time for her to go."
