During the Democrat primary season prior to the 2020 presidential election, Joe Biden said that people should “surge to the border” because if he’s elected it’ll be a lot easier to get into the United States:

Earlier this year, some of those who were headed north to the US/Mexico border were even wearing Biden shirts:

The Biden administration knows they have a major problem on their hands (the border is among the top concerns of voters), so now Mayorkas is taking a familiar approach: Blaming Trump for the Biden-created mess:

“Irregular migration” will never not sound ridiculous.
Blaming everything on Trump is getting very old.
