Bidens republican immigration bill goes nowhere so he decides to float his own version of a Muslim ban?

    This doesn’t mean that 73% don’t care.

    Also, the “liberal” media has been hell-bent on scaring people on the border. Truth is, a lot of moderates are concerned about the border. And they determine elections. As president, he is expected to address people’s concerns.

      Offer void for progressives’ concerns.

        Generally he has leaned progressive when he can. He doesn’t when he can’t. That’s literally all you can expect from him. I’d rather him win the election and continue to do as much good as he can than lose and let Trump do as much damage as he can.

          I’d rather people who are happy with him adopting Trump’s policies quit acting like anyone who has any criticism of him at all is a Trump supporter.

              He’s literally continued Trump’s border policies with the exception of family separation.

                That’s a pretty damned huge exception. Also, the dumbass wall. Also a they’re a lot less restrictive to asylum seekers. Also, he tried to undo Trump’s covid immigration executive order, which got blocked by courts. Actually, they’re quite different. In fact if you think Biden’s policies are bad, you better hope and pray Trump doesn’t get back in.

                Edit: How could I forget DACA.

                  The OP is about an executive order to crack down on asylum seekers.

                    Yes, he is limiting the number of asylum seekers. Yes Trump is going to be infinitely worse if he’s elected.

        While you and I may care, and a lot of young college folks care.

        Your “average” American could give shit less about what is going on in Gaza. If they even have any clue at all about it.

        The genocide is one that I can’t get over. I understand the bill that got Ukrainian aid. But he won’t even call it a genocide. Even with Rafah he backpedaled.

        I honestly like or at least accept the majority of Biden’s term. But Gaza has been a disaster that he continues to botch.
