    The difference has been explained to you multiple times.

    Each time, you leave this thread, then come back with the same.

    Why is that?

    Unlike some posters in this thread, whos interest in US politics seems to preclude them from posting about anything else, I tend not to pay too much attention to a lot of US politics. However the media is reporting that the President is carrying on with his predecessors controversial wall.

    I'd imagine there will soon be a chorus of disapproval from some of the aforementioned posters :)

    So you're pleading ignorance for not knowing about a topic that you want to discuss?
    And you're having a dig at people for discussing things that interest them?

    Which position makes most sense?

    I'm not pleading ignorance, pay attention. I'm stating that my interest in this topic is proportional to that of someone who does not live in the US

    Presidents Biden intention to carry on with the wall is widely reported in the press now so, like a few others, I look forward to the reaction of posters who's level of interest in the topic is quite intense for people who don't live in the US. Many of them have previously been voiciferous in the opposition to walls and immigration control, it will be interesting to see if they maintain that level of righteous indignation. :)

    Is there anything else that you need cleared up?

    It's a matter of time, and once it starts being built again it will be called "repairs".

    Controlling immigration is a popular policy in America as it is in most countries.

    People just wanted to focus on Trump and had a personal dislike for him. They didn't actually care about the issues or the policies.

    They faked an interest in the needs of immigrants.

    If the first sentence of your post is true, then the last 2 are false.

    The last guy set the agenda for how immigration was discussed with his simple rhetoric of 'Build the wall' coupled with his reference that the people coming were criminals and racists.

    If Biden is continuing to build portions of the wall, or whatever (can understand why he would) it shows once more as to just how badly Trump handled it, going so far as to shut down the government in an attempt to get funding for it (Aside from the fact that he had already said that Mexico was going to pay for it).

    There's no doubt Trump heightened existing negative attitudes to Latino immigrants but the policy of stopping as many immigrants coming to America is a cross party policy, that most Americans support.

    They just didn't like the way Trump talked about it, but the policy is still pretty much the same.

    You’re conflating objectives and policies.

    The objective is to reduce the number of illegal immigrants, the policies are how that is done.

    Trump’s policies were rightly called out and criticised for being racist and xenophobic and despite all that largely ineffective.

    People smugglers. "Pay us $8,000 and we will get you to America".

    Illegal immigrant. "That's all we have, why would I part with my life savings"?

    People smugglers. "This is why"



    Illegal immigrant. "Shut up and take my money"

    Are you serious?

    Do you not understand the context in which that speech was made? That it was made to people who had being awarded citizenship.

    Obviously, the people who published it looked to create a narrative with the inclusion of the word 'Bumbling' in the title. There was no bumbling, and it was an entirely appropriate message for those it was directed at.

    You are probably like those in the comments of the video who think that it was being made while looking over the border wall.

    So the ATF is now the AFT according to Biden, the gaffes continue, along with referring to VP Harris as the President on more than one occasion according to Joe, but I guess that's not a sign of anything, failed to correct himself to I might add. Just imagine if the orange man said this, it would be breaking news on CNN all week.

    What do you think it all means? And what should be done about it?
