The Biden administration owns the current situation and wording that says "shall have" and the accompanying exceptions, that you didn't mention, offers no reason to think that the situation won't remain unsustainable.
So yes. Good grief.

Stupid excuse of the year.

Just wanted to reiterate that the idea that Biden welcomed them to come, kept the door open, and gave them freebies isn’t just on right wing fake news sites

SAS sure changed his tone regarding immigration from what he just posted a few months back. What a fucking 🤡 he voted for this, own it!

I would prefer him admitting that he now understands the consequences, and he didn't mention credit card debt has reached a record high in spite of being told how rosy the economy is.
Nor did he mention the middle east could blow up at any minute.

"The Biden administration is considering taking executive action to deter illegal migration across the southern border, according to two U.S. officials."

"As passing legislation on border security in Congress appears unlikely, the plans under consideration signal that the White House wants to take action before numbers at the border, which have dropped in the past month, rise again as expected."

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/immigration/biden-administration-weighs-executive-action-border-migrants-rcna137804

Would the GOP be considered co-owners if this ocurs ?
Undoubtedly. LOL

Yep.  The GOP will still be co-owners,
no matter how much you twist yourself into a pretzel to say otherwise.

The best way to deal with the situation is through comprehensive legislation that authorizes specific actions.  Executive orders are a band-aid approach and they may not survive a legal challenge.

You have no issues with Biden creating unprecedented and unsustainable illegal immigration and unknown national security threats because muh legislation is needed ?

As long as the border is not secure it's Trump's fault. Lol.

The only people twisting themselves into pretzels around here are alum and Ray trying to carry all of Joe Biden’s water for him. Ray called right wing fake news on a trio of things No One said that are factual, then doubled and triple down on it. Alum embodies the soft bigotry of low expectations. Not a ringing endorsement of a sitting president when you claim he’s powerless and it’s everyone else’s fault. But you’ll take full credit for the deficit spending economy and good gas prices!

The only thing worse than being ignorant is not knowing how ignorant you are. That’s Custard Fart’s problem. Maybe you didn’t listen to me the last time I warned you that faster than you can say chlamydobacteriaceae, Custard would project a stream of paltry images of death, sex, disaster, material goods, celebrities, and other fixtures in a mock-Olympian firmament. Well, he has. So please listen to me this time when I say that Custard says he’s going to provide cover for an odious agenda sooner than you think. Is he out of his mind? The answer is fairly obvious when you consider that we have a dilemma of leviathan proportions on our hands. Specifically, should we throw off his yoke of Jacobinism, or is it sufficient to make the world safe for democracy? Having long ago made up my mind on this subject, I have no hesitation in saying that I’ve tried explaining to Custard’s proxies that a plan for effectively holding Custard responsible for the hatred he so furtively expresses is perilously overdue. Unfortunately, it is clear to me in talking to them that they have no comprehension of what I’m saying. I might as well be talking to creatures from Mars. In fact, I’d bet Martians would be more likely to discern that Custard should stop protesting against his weaknesses and shortcomings. Rather, he should forgive himself for them and seek to strengthen himself by facing his rotten fears. Then, perhaps, Custard would stop replacing our natural soul with an artificial one. A gentlemanly fellow I recently had the pleasure to meet remarked that, Custard strikes me as being a tad deluded. That’s indubitably a candidate for Understatement of the Year. Not only is Custard the most deluded person the world has ever seen, but he deeply believes that his personal facts are a satisfactory substitute for well-established scientific facts. This is a thought that should chill the spine of anyone with moral convictions. To make sure you understand I’ll spell it out for you: Custard fears diversity of thought. He demands that everyone agree with him under threat of being chased out, shamed, and silenced by his inimical, barbarous lapdogs. Scary, huh? That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

I don’t, provided Biden doesn’t exceed his executive authority.  We will see what he comes up with.   

Even though it didn’t codify DREAM or provide a pathway to citizenship (except for Afghan immigrants who entered the country after July 2021), I would have preferred the bipartisan legislation negotiated in the Senate. 

Now its “fuck around and find out” time.  When Biden announces the executive order, he should wear a tan suit while eating a hot dog with Dijon mustard and drinking a latte.

A lot of deluded thinking on the right.

Trump supposedly kept all all his promises, had the greatest economy ever with record growth, low unemployment, and no inflation.

The reality is growth was under 3%, UE cont'd to decline, and inflation was stable.

He didn't build a wall and make a make Mexico pay for  it. What little got started was funded by money diverted from the military budget by executive order.

His tax cuts accomplished little or nothing long range and exploded the deficit. Corporations bought back their own stock; which temporarily spiked markets

He started a trade war that killed beneficial farm trade deals negotiated by Republicans decades earlier.

He didn't repeal the ACA or pass an incredibly better replacement.

His ill-timed deal with  OPEC backfired.

He  has decided internal resistance as well as opposition from Congress and the Courts prevented him from completing his agenda.

He has a plan if elected to eliminate all internal dissent and stunt external opposition so he can rule as a Unitary Executive aka dictator.

Trump also plans to effectively make it treasonous to oppose him.
He intends to appoint special prosecutors to go after everyone he perceives as his enemy.
