In a stunning admission that probably made his CNN bosses cringe, Chief Political Analyst David Axelrod conceded Thursday that President Trump's administration "should claim credit for stopping the flow of immigrants illegally across the border. They've done a good job on that."
The comment came during Thursday's broadcast of CNN's "The Source," where even the network's premier Democrat strategist couldn't spin away the obvious truth: Trump's America First border policies are working exactly as promised.
From Chaos to Control
The admission is particularly damaging to the left's narrative when you consider what Trump inherited. After four years of Biden's open-border disaster—with record-breaking illegal crossings, fentanyl flooding American communities, and cartels operating with impunity—the contrast couldn't be starker.
Under Trump's leadership, Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem and the administration have implemented exactly the common-sense policies that made America's border the most secure it had been in decades during Trump's first term.

This isn't just about partisan politics—it's about American families who can sleep safer at night knowing their president actually takes border security seriously. It's about communities no longer overrun by illegal immigration that strains schools, hospitals, and local resources.
Even CNN Can't Hide the Truth
When even Obama's former campaign manager and CNN's go-to Democrat analyst admits Trump is succeeding, you know the results are undeniable. This is the same network that spent years attacking Trump's border wall as "racist" and "ineffective."
The American people demanded secure borders, and President Trump delivered—again. While Democrats spent years calling border security "xenophobic," Trump understood what every sovereign nation knows: you can't have a country without borders.
How long before other legacy media outlets are forced to admit what Patriots already knew? Trump's America First agenda isn't just campaign rhetoric—it's results that even his enemies can't deny.
