It seems the new Fox News talking point today is the VP interview saying she hasn't been to Europe either and doesn't understand the point about visiting the border.
So, while I don't think it's a big deal, I don't understand how the VP and White House don't anticipate that question is going to be asked and have a pre-planned answer. It's like they haven't prepared for the interview before hand.
It's really easy to say, "I plan to visit the border in the near future, but I'm in constant contact with our administrations officials in DHS and border security and have regular updates on the progress there. We don't run our administration just for photo ops to satisfy the press and media talking points, and our goal is to address the root cause of immigration, which is why I'm visiting Central America and Mexico to meet with the leaders and discuss the broader problems of crime, poverty, and corruption in order to address why families start the dangerous journey north to begin with."
Something to that affect is much better than acting like you didn't realize a question about a border visit would come and laugh it off with some stupid saying about visiting Europe too. This has been a right wing news talking point for weeks. Seems like a self inflected error on the VP and White House.
