    Wait so Biden revives a Trump policy……and now Republicans have a problem with it, but don’t give specifics as to why they suddenly have a problem with it?

    Is there anything he can do right in their eyes???

      Its not that. Its the timing. Hes changing policies in the short term, and as soon as hes elected hell go right back to letting everyone in.

        Oh so your problem with it is what you think he’s going to do in the future after he’s re-elected, rather than the thing he actually did?

        I know a family trying to take a three week vacation to the US. They applied for a visa. They need to do an interview to get the visa. The interview is scheduled a year and a half from the day they applied and is on a random weekday in a city 8 hours from where they live. They don’t live in the middle of nowhere, they live in a huge city with a population of over 15 million.

        They applied in 2023. Is this considered letting everyone in?

        I have a coworker who’s here on a work visa. He has a master’s degree and works in a high demand field, making over 200k a year. His visa renewal was rejected and he has to leave in a few months. Do you consider this letting everyone in?

        What’s your reasoning for thinking that he lets everyone in?
