Trump repeatedly criticized Biden during the CNN Presidential Debate for his handling of the border crisis, saying it has turned the US into a "rats nest" and is "killing our people." Biden defended his policies, saying the situation is better than when Trump left office. He pointed to a recent executive order that has led to a 40% drop in encounters and said the administration needs more funding and reform from Congress to fix a "broken" system. Trump contrasted the treatment of veterans to how migrants are being housed in "luxury hotels" and receiving benefits. He also criticized the amount of drugs like fentanyl crossing the border.
