The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Where does this distorted stilted view come from? If Biden had no principled interest in reducing immigration, legal or illegal, and he will exploit any opening he has to keep it flowing, then why did he keep and enforce Title 42? There was nothing there to force him to follow that law, that wouldn't be in the bill. Why would he attempt to duplicate Title 42 administratively if he had no principled interest? This seems like a contrived view that you know doesn't correspond to reality. - Lapsody

------------------

Doesn't comport with reality? Biden has a well earned soft on border image as reflected in poll and poll after poll. The caravans were shown marching along in nice white Biden T-shirts but the optics is bad so you don't see that much anymore. Even the migrants themselves, periodically in interviews while they wait to cross, will express their gratitude to Joe Biden for opening the border... One video showing migrants chanting Biden Biden as they marched and the narrator quipped, "It was the biggest rally that Biden has ever had."

There are a lot of videoes of migrants thanking Biden, here is one (6:48)
