Donald Trump traveled to the US-Mexico border to watch the disaster unfold under President Biden’s policies.
The Rev. Franklin Graham was also at the border at the same time, and the two met in a touching moment of prayer.

Graham and Trump meet at the border
From Fox News, “Rev. Franklin Graham and the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association urged prayer for the border, Mexico, and all people living in the area during a visit to Eagle Pass, Texas.”
“I’m on the border with Mexico and obviously that’s the focus of a lot of attention for our country. Millions of people have crossed this border into our country,” Graham said Wednesday, Feb. 28, in border comments shared with Fox News Digital,” the report notes. “Graham was speaking at Shelby Park, which is in Eagle Pass, directly across from Mexico.”
The story continued:
Acknowledging that “people from all over the world” come to Shelby Park for new opportunities, Graham also said that “a lot of politicians come here to Eagle Pass” for political purposes.
Graham, however, wanted to put politics aside during this visit and preach the Gospel to those who needed his message.
With the city’s transformation into a political hot topic, Graham expressed empathy for those simply trying to live their lives.
“People down here are discouraged,” he said during his trip. “I’m talking about the locals, the Texans who live here. It’s tough: Border Patrol is having a hard time, Texas state law enforcement is having a hard time. The people who live here are overwhelmed.”
Americans have seen how relatively small numbers of illegal immigrants can overwhelm even huge sanctuary cities like New York and Chicago.
Now imagine places like little Eagle Pass, with a population of just 28,000.
Over 7 millions illegal aliens have been crossing the border since Biden became president.

Power of prayer
Both Trump and President Joe Biden visited the US southern border this week, with both being their respective parties’ most likely presidential nominees.
Trump is currently ahead of Biden in the polls.
But Rev. Graham’s border visit was apparently about more than just polling and politics.
It’s not up to us to judge. May God bless them all.
