This is like that old joke:
Man meets a woman in a bar and asks her if she'd sleep with him for a million dollars. "Of course" she says.
Man asks her if she'll sleep with him for 20 dollars. "what do you think I am, a whore?" she replies.
"We've already established that miss, now we're just haggling over the price."
Dims agree there is a big fucking problem at the border but apparently the word "crisis" gives them the heebie jeebies.
So we all agree there is a problem we just cant agree on what to call it. For the Dims "crisis" is waaaaay too over the top. For R's, "crisis" gives a adequate description to a flood of uneducated and unskilled illegals trying to enter our country and overwhelm our systems.
You make the call I guess:
Crisis:
noun, plural cri·ses [krahy-seez] /ˈkraɪ siz/.
a stage in a sequence of events at which the trend of all future events, especially for better or for worse, is determined; turning point.
a condition of instability or danger, as in social, economic, political, or international affairs, leading to a decisive change.
a dramatic emotional or circumstantial upheaval in a person's life.
