You’re putting far more thought into this than any conservative

Is there anything he can do right in their eyes???
Die, probably. But then that would result in President Kamala Harris and I think they’d hate that even more.
Its not that. Its the timing. Hes changing policies in the short term, and as soon as hes elected hell go right back to letting everyone in.
But he isn’t letting everyone in. Very important point.

He did it for the last 3 and a half years. Do you really think hes going to stop now?

I know a family trying to take a three week vacation to the US. They applied for a visa. They need to do an interview to get the visa. The interview is scheduled a year and a half from the day they applied and is on a random weekday in a city 8 hours from where they live. They don’t live in the middle of nowhere, they live in a huge city with a population of over 15 million.
They applied in 2023. Is this considered letting everyone in?
I have a coworker who’s here on a work visa. He has a master’s degree and works in a high demand field, making over 200k a year. His visa renewal was rejected and he has to leave in a few months. Do you consider this letting everyone in?
What’s your reasoning for thinking that he lets everyone in?
The problem is that they’re trying to do it legally.

38000 ppl currently detained by ice and cbp for illegal border crossing. That’s a lot of ppl not being let in.
Thats magnitudes less than the millions Border Patrol catches and releases every year. https://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/stats/southwest-land-border-encounters
That’s millions by year and my statistic is for a month. Looks like your statistic shows 170k encounters for the most recent month which is what we should compare to the 38k detained.
That’s roughly just under a quarter of encounters getting detained. Being encountered but not detained doesn’t mean they are let into the US. They get sent back. Detaining people costs more money than sending people back.
No, theyre detained for a little bit and released into the US
Biden’s presidency has continued and expanded upon Trump’s migration policies, rather than breaking from them. In early 2020, Trump used the COVID pandemic as an excuse to invoke Title 42, enabling the expulsion of migrants and asylum seekers at the border, which resulted in the detention and deportation of nearly 400,000 migrants before Trump left office. Instead of revoking this policy once he became president, Biden defended it, and oversaw the deportation of 2.8 million people under the policy between January 2021 and May 2023, expanding it to include Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans and Venezuelans. In May 2023, Biden replaced Title 42 with another harsh set of regulations, increasing requirements for migrants to be eligible for asylum. Throughout his presidential tenure, Biden has also increased funding for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and expanded ICE contracts and ICE surveillance programs.
That is the issue.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
President Joe Biden is reportedly planning to unveil a sweeping new executive order aimed at curbing migrant arrivals at the US-Mexico border.
More than 6.4 million migrants have been stopped crossing into the US illegally during Joe Biden’s administration - a record high that has left him politically vulnerable as he campaigns for re-election.
CBS - the BBC’s US partner - and other US news outlets reported that Mr Biden has been mulling use of a 1952 law that allows access to the American asylum system to be restricted.
The same regulation was used by the Trump administration to ban immigration and travel from several predominantly Muslim countries and to bar migrants from asylum if they were apprehended crossing into the US illegally, provoking accusations of racism.
“As we have said before, the administration continues to explore a series of policy options and we remain committed to taking action to address our broken immigration system,” the spokesperson added.Republicans criticised the Biden border plan as an election-year ruse and argued that US laws already exist to prevent illegal immigration, but they were not being duly enforced by the Democratic president.News of the potential executive order comes as numbers of migrant detentions at the US-Mexico border fall.
Recently released statistics from US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) show that about 179,000 migrant “encounters” were recorded in April.
