Yeah, it's new. It's the worst since 2000 and is getting worse and projected to do so by both sides.

Trumps shortsighted policies which along with his failed pandemic policies reduced illegal immigration in the short term did nothing to reduce the push.

You repeat mantras about shortsighted policies and failed pandemic policies as if they're a given, simply a priori true. In the meanwhile, reducing immigration "in the short term" is the only term that he is responsible for since his term is over and his policies have been cut.

But we are simply supposed to believe your mantras and to suppose that Trump policies would not make a substantial and long term reduction in illegal immigration, nor that they would actually solve any "undocumented" immigration problems. According to your oft repeated but unsubstantiated mantras there is no connection between Biden's policies along with the cutting of Trump's policies to the dramatic spike in border crossings. Nothing new. And, of course, Biden's polices, we must assume, are far sighted and will actually make it all better.

As of this moment, the numbers make your suggestions and accusations out to be smoke up our butts.


In fact employers like him that were employing illegals increased the attraction.

His political actions, as you noted, decreased the attraction. Biden's policies and election promises increased the attraction.
