Jen Psaki Blames Trump Administration for Current Migrant CrisisCharlie Spiering 25 Feb 2021
White House press secretary Jen Psaki blamed former President Donald Trump’s administration Thursday for the growing migrant crisis on the Southern border.
The left has condemned President Joe Biden for reopening detention camps for the surge of unaccompanied migrants at the Southern border after the president restored “catch and release†policies.
Since Biden won the 2020 election, a surge of unaccompanied minors has been apprehended at the border. In January alone, Customs and Border Protection took almost 6,000 unaccompanied children into custody.
However, Psaki said Trump’s policies were to blame.
“We’re not looking at President Trump or any of his advisors as a model for how we are approaching immigration,†she said, reassuring reporters that the Biden administration would “forge our own path forward†on the issue.
Psaki also blamed the Trump administration for not doing enough to improve the living conditions for people in foreign countries such as El Salvador, Honduras, and Nicaragua
“There are conditions that are in these countries that we have not done enough to help improve,†she said.
“We’re in the circumstance we’re in because not only was their approach inhumane, it was ineffective,†Psaki told reporters during her daily press briefing.
