Trump failed to secure the border. What makes you think he will succeed if re-elected?

The law is outdated. We liberals/ DEMS want more immigrant come to America.

 

If you were willing to add "legally, with vetting as to who get to cross the border" you would have a valid point.

No criminals, no terrorists and if they do get in, they are deported immediately. There also must be limits on the number of people who enter the country per year so that local government systems are not getting slammed as they are now.

 

Again , I agree with you. Unfortunately, the law today is ambiguous. Anyone who came to USA, within 1 year can seek asylum regardless they crossed the border legally or illegally. Once they seek asylum, the law give them protection until the court rejects their asylum.

What we need is change in asylum law and yes we should have provision in the law that if someone cross the border illegally should automatically be disqualified to seek asylum. Only Point of Entry, you can apply for asylum.

 

I am more specifically remembering this policy. I guess there were other policies he did use that were not pandemic related.

Key facts about Title 42, the pandemic policy that has reshaped immigration enforcement at U.S.-Mexico border
By John Gramlich

The Biden administration is seeking to end the use of Title 42, a pandemic-era policy that has led the Border Patrol to turn away hundreds of thousands of migrants attempting to enter the United States at the U.S.-Mexico border over the past two years. The administration’s move to end the Title 42 policy has been cheered in some corners and criticized in others, and opponents of the decision are challenging it in court and in Congress.

NOTE:

There was a remain in Mexico policy that trump enacted and Biden ended with the allowance of the USSC.
Separate from the Title 42 policy.

 

Why do you say it doesn't exist?
If that were true, no one would ever be turned away. But even though immigrants crossing went up, so did deportation and those being turned away.

Deportations, returns and expulsions



Since Title 42 ended in May, Biden officials have deported or returned roughly 500,000 people to Mexico and other countries, exceeding Trump’s totals, which averaged roughly 500,000 annually. But Biden’s higher numbers are partly the result of a much greater volume of illegal crossings.

I think you may be totally misinformed on border policies.

 

I was specifically referring to title 42.
I had to go back and do research as I was going from 3-4 yr old memory.
Title 42 is what I remembered.

But trump did have a remain in Mexico policy that Biden ended and the USSC upheld.

 

The ratio of those being deported/expelled went way down to the point where the vast majority are released into our nation.

 

Thanks. Very interesting...

 

Did you just make that up?
You didn't bother looking at the chart I posted or the link with it?

Why just post made up stuff?

At the very least, post the data to support your claim.

 

The facts come from Mayorkas. Your chart does nothing to disprove Mayorkas's statements so I have no idea why you think it does. Two statements can be true: the number of encounters have skyrocketed and most people who come to our border are released into the interior.

 

Post them.
They should be easy for you to find and link.

 

We have posted these facts for you a dozen times, including his sworn statements, but you have been incapable of understanding them which is why you keep posting a chart that has nothing to do with my statement.

When asked directly if most migrants are released into he interior he said he knows the data, he refuses to release it, but it's not surprising to him that most are released.

 

No one has posted the facts.
So, you be the 1st.

If you have done so dozens of times, it should be easy for you to do so again.

 

You've got a point because Democrats were solidly into "resist 45" and stopping Trump from fixing the border because they don't want the border fixed.
