Biden's evil border policies

 Jeffrey Folks:

...

Believing they can gain votes needed for a permanent majority, Democrats engage in a cynical practice of open borders that is harmful to those who attempt the trip.  At least 650 individuals died while attempting to cross the U.S.-Mexico border in 2021, with hundreds of others either unaccounted for on land or lost attempting to reach Florida by sea.  Many thousands suffered abuse, including rape, at the hands of gang members.  Even after arriving, illegals may be forced into indentured service of some kind.  A border policy constructed around vote-getting is bound to fail, and Biden's border policy is a catastrophe.

Under President Trump, the border was quickly secured and the flood of illegal migrants halted.  Even the liberal Pew Research Center notes that "migrant encounters at the U.S.-Mexico border are at a 21-year high."  Encounters have risen from 16,182 in April 2020, not long after Trump left office, to almost 200,000 in the month of July 2021 alone, and those figures don't count "gotaways."  Trump's policies worked, and not just for American citizens; they prevented the victimization of millions of helpless individuals.  They were humane rather than politically cynical and calculated.

At the same time, President Trump increased opportunities for legal immigration and sought to shift policy in favor of merit.  A merit-based system would afford legal immigrants better opportunities once they arrive.  More than 35 million immigrants live in the U.S. legally, and these immigrants have more readily assimilated to the general population.  Unlike Biden's brutal tactics, Trump's well-reasoned immigration strategy served the interests of both the U.S. and potential immigrants.

...

Biden's illegal Border policies merit his impeachment.  They violate US law and they are cruel and dangerous.  They have also enriched the Mexican drug cartels and facilitated their import of dangerous drugs into the US.
