Normally kind to Democrats and mean to Republicans, Politico has an article today with the following title.
It’s not just Republicans. Everyone’s mad at Biden over migration.
And they report polling that's hard to ignore, especially when you consider Politico sponsored some of it.
A recent POLITICO/Morning Consult poll found that registered voters trusted Republicans in Congress more than Democrats, 45 percent to 40 percent, to handle immigration. Only 38 percent of U.S. adults approve of Biden’s handling of immigration, according to a recent Reuters/Ipsos poll.
Congressional Democrats who want to be reelected can't like those numbers much. Joe Biden seems to be doing everything possible to remind voters why they elected Trump in 2016.
Admittedly, some angry Democrats don't approve of the government herding illegal immigrants like cattle. But those Ds from border states tend to agree with Republicans, that the illegal tide needs to be turned back.
What puzzles me is why the Border Patrol isn't vaccinating everyone who shows up seeking asylum, and deporting those who refuse the shot. Even if the vaccinated are later deported, they will at least have some protection against the corona virus.
