I’ll have to post Bill Meliguen thread which lays out specific policies Biden enacted which caused the crisis.

Sad we actually ignore policy and point the finger out a guy out of office for 3 years. Pathetic and weak

Who said Biden didn't create what is largely going on at the border?? My post specifically stated he did, in fact, cause what we have now. Under Trump, the courts prevented him from enacting several boarder control measures because he didn't have the authority (Specifically with asylum seekers which the vast majority are now). This bill would have given more authority to the President and Border patrol to close the border and turn away the majority of those seeking asylum. More importantly catch and release would have ended.

Sinema (You know the Sen the Dems hate??) pointed out the border shutdown would have already triggered if the Bill had passed and the 20K asylum seekers that crossed since the bill was stopped would have been prevented from crossing.

The Bill was stopped because Trump knows how bad the border is benefits him for the election. True, Biden can become as restrictive as Trump was, but that wasn't and isn't good enough to stop the flow (example more crossed under Trump than Obama until the 2020 pandemic closed migration worldwide). Bottomline, even if Trump gets back in he won't be able to match what this bill would have done. But as usual it is Trump before country for him and his supporters.
