Mitt Romney , R-Utah, sparred with Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas during a Senate hearing Thursday, saying his refusal to treat the border crisis like a crisis is "extremely damning."

Mayorkas and Romney exchanged heated words, culminating in the senator asking if the secretary believes that the crisis at the border "is not a problem then."
