We all must admit that it's highly cynical, ironic, and a case of double standards to label millions of immigrants who are currently entering America as illegal, as if the founding fathers of America, including Biden's ancestors from Ireland and Trump's from Germany, were any more legal than them.
President
Joe Biden found himself in the spotlight for issuing an apology to the murderer of Laken Riley, specifically for referring to him as "illegal." In a broader context, Biden criticized former President
Donald Trump's rhetoric on border security, further deepening the divide on America's stance on immigration.
During his apology, Biden made a point to correct his terminology, stating, "Undocumented...an undocumented person and I shouldn't have used 'illegal.' It is 'undocumented.'" He contrasted his views with Trump's, condemning the latter's derogatory language towards immigrants, which he believes undermines their contribution to American society. "When I spoke about the difference between Trump and me, one of the things I talked about on the border was his way of talking about vermin, the way he talks about these people polluting the blood," Biden remarked.
Biden went further, emphasizing the vital role of immigrants in building America, "Look, they built the country, the reason our economy's growing."
Meanwhile, in a contrasting show of support,
Donald Trump met with the parents of Laken Riley, presenting a different approach to handling the consequences of America's immigration policies. This juxtaposition of actions and rhetoric from the current and former presidents highlights the complex and often contentious debate surrounding immigration in the United States
