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.

Overturning the "Remain in Mexico" was a great start towards this. Now they are in and can run.
Combine this with Immigration backlog numbers setting new record highs almost every single day.. well that's alot of Asylum refugees running around in the US that will pretty much be here for a while. and typically, the only ones that show are families. 

But hey, Biden is getting a wall done and getting high praise for it... after spending years hearing how ineffective a wall is....
