As I wrote, Biden needs to be tough on the border, but has not been a weak on the border as many believe:
“….Biden is using another Trump policy known as “
Title 42 expulsion” to immediately deport as many asylum seekers and border crossers as possible without hearing their asylum claims. He's mostly dumping them in Mexico, just as Trump did with "Remain in Mexico," just with a different name and on a much larger scale. Biden's still using the pandemic as a reason for this policy, despite the easy availability of effective vaccines for Americans who want them. But whatever the excuse, his goal is the same as Trump: immediately deport as many as he possibly can…..
The Biden administration has smashed all records for immediate expulsions without due process, increasing
the rate from 62,000 per month under Trump to about 100,000, but Mexico
will only take back its own citizens, Guatemalans, Hondurans, and Salvadorans, and even for the Central Americans, it
will not take back young kids with their parents if it has no place for them to stay (how logical!)…..
……Well, the Trump administration faced the exact same constraints, and they too
released many thousands of immigrants from the border..”
The border may be a problem for Biden in the future, so he needs to deal with it forcfully.
