As has been shown, that border bill was pretty convoluted. On one hand it could allow 5,000 a day in before hitting stop gap measures to curtail it.(actually 8750? on single days) I think controlling/hearing Trump's 250 asylum claims a day(down 95%) is fairly easy to process and doesn't provide the beacon of "open border" that that bill would have. When I saw what was in the bill, I wrote my congressman and said "hell no" that ain't gonna float.
To the casual observer, and those polled, the Trump way was seems to have been superior.
My questions for you are, why did it take 15,000,000 illegals before Biden decided to do something/anything? How is that even defensible? How could that be even close to, "The border is secure"? Where was the border czar and how many trips to the border did she make? Why didn't MSM even cover it?
Don't worry, all rhetorical questions
