You're right, the situation at the border could not be at all the result of decades of poor policy decisions across our branches and parties. This also does not in any way exculpate the idea of trying to use the trauma of a young girl to score cheap political points.
You want to talk about border policies? Let's do it in a way that isn't connected to this horrible situation. This is worse, IMO, than using the tragedy of a school/mass shooting to push for gun control in the immediate aftermath. Just make sure to bring specific policy decisions by Biden into the thread that point to him being the reason for the surge.
