President Joe Biden’s tone-deaf new executive order purporting to reduce illegal immigration is one more example of why he does not deserve another term, notwithstanding that his opponent, former President Donald Trump, also belongs nowhere near the Oval Office.
The order itself is devoid of logic. It will shut down asylum requests at the border if they average more than 2,500 at official ports of entry, but reopen them if the number drops below 1,500. But why, pray tell, should Biden allow up to 2,500 daily to start with, or restart allowances to keep them above 1,500? Why should he allow a single person to enter “without papers” at all?
