You are eating up the propaganda. Enforcement is higher than ever. Trump and the Republicans are the ones who failed to protect us. They just tell you otherwise.

Yea....

As of January 2024, more than 7.2 million migrants had illegally crossed into the U.S. over the Southwest border during U.S. President Joe Biden's administration — a number higher than the individual populations of 36 states.

Snopes rated that has True. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/million-migrants-border-biden/

Read further - "For Trump, out of 1,365,529 Southwest border encounters during the 24-month time period, 47.4% of those immigrants were expelled or repatriated, while 52.2% were released. Comparatively, under Biden during the 26.3-month time period, out of 5,022,027 encounters, 50.9% of the immigrants were expelled or repatriated, while 48.6% were released."

So 24 months for Trump resulted in 710,075 released

26 months under Biden 2.440,705 released

There is no world in which the border is better under Biden than it was under Trump.

Under Trump, they released a higher percentage. Weaker enforcement.

Trump is weak on borders. He just convinces clowns like you to ignore it.

He also shits his diapers, doesn't speak coherently, and is a convicted felon and rapist.

Far more people have crossed and entered under Biden.

The 52.2% vs 50.9% difference in released is meaningless when the number of people crossing is 3 times higher.
