Open Border, Closing Door: Biden’s Odds for 2024
As The Post reports, a recent CBS/YouGov poll shows all the remaining Republican candidates beating President Biden in the general election (“Any GOPer over Biden in new poll,” Jan. 17).
What is remarkable about this snapshot in time is that plenty of voters would prefer Donald Trump not to run at all, while neither Ron DeSantis nor Nikki Haley has exactly captivated the imagination of the electorate.
This dynamic underscores what Biden and his party have come to represent: forced DEI in workplaces, an end to meritocracy, identity politics, open borders, a narrative that criminals are the real victims and the indoctrination of students from grade school through college with leftist tripe. This picture of Biden’s party is becoming clearer by the day. Anthony Parks

One of the top issues among primary voters is immigration. Yet Democrats often demonize those trying to stem the tide of migration.
Currently, the federal government is ordering Texas to remove physical
barriers at the border. Chuck Schumer, meanwhile, tried to negotiate a deal in the Senate that would give amnesty to migrants who came into our country during the Biden administration.
Roughly 5,000 migrants are crossing the border each day: people who would presumably take jobs, flood our social and health-care systems and further drive wages down for working-class US citizens. Democrats are clearly out of touch with the needs of the American electorate. Nick McNulty Windham, NH
Sleepy Joe, seeing that his poll numbers are underwater, says he’s “ready to make significant changes” to his immigration policy (“Joe bordering on change,” Jan. 18).
All this means is that the Democrats are satisfied that millions of potential future voters will be given amnesty. I suspect that was Biden’s immigration policy from his first day in office.

With November fast approaching, all of a sudden the Democrats care about the border, fentanyl and crime.
It’s the same thing every four years. The mainstream media will show a one-hour closing of the border, one drug bust and another phony crime statistic from the corrupt FBI. Dems will hold press conferences to brag. In the end, the GOP does nothing. Conservatives and Republicans stay on the barstools and couches. The Dems win again. All the signs are there if you look close enough. Storm Destro
