1.6 million undocumented people under Biden. Don't let them invent numbers. They make up some X million people when that number is either total fantasy or it's a count of the contacts border patrol got, which includes phone calls.

1.6 Million people, and the vast majority of them simply overstayed their Visas or screwed up paperwork.

And right now, it’s not even relevant.

They have unleashed gangs that go around smashing car windows, harassing, assaulting, and executing people on the streets.

None of this actually addresses illegal immigration. Obama was able to deport people humanely and using due process.

And I think we'd have noticed. Trump just pulls large numbers out of his ass.

That's why they inflate the numbers.

The fact is, we do not have an illegal immigration crisis in this country and we never have. Can the system be improved? Yes. Can the borders be more secure? Also yes. Reform is needed. But inventing some number and then sending a secret police force into the cities is fascist.
