Sure. But I’m surprised people think it’s positive for a very newly installed governor to travel to a circus to literally shoot videos for social media.

In that same vein, you have yet to say what things you think he should be focused on and/or what other things you think he should be doing to address the flood of illegals, sex trafficking and drugs which are coming into Louisiana after crossing the border from Mexico into Texas.
Do you have concrete numbers on the amount of those things happening here in Louisiana? Those issues aren’t my priority, but I’m not a lackey for wealthy politicians who don’t know or care that I exist, and I don’t live on Twitter and TikTok.

Very little is "concrete" with illegals in the country as the very nature of coming in illegally is contrary to that sort of data specificity. That said, at least one estimate put the population of illegals in Louisiana at 70k back in 2019. As illegal immigration has only continued to rise since then, it's safe to assume we're somewhere over 100k in Louisiana. That would be something along the lines of 2x the entire Monroe/West Monroe population.
What number of illegals is an acceptable number to you?
