Biden’s ABC One-On-One Preview Is A Disaster, Stephanopoulos Reports: Migrants Coming For Biden Promise, Biden Says ‘They’re Not’
President Biden on Tuesday has responded to the migrants coming to the U.S. as his administration is facing a major surge at the southern border. Biden gave his usual response of ‘here’s the deal’ and responded if Gov. Cuomo should resign.
Biden told George Stephanopoulos, “I can say quite clearly don’t come over,” during an ABC News interview that is scheduled to air Wednesday morning, “Don’t leave your town or city or community.”
Biden did share what other administration officials have said in recent weeks as the crisis worsens and that his administration needs time to get a system set up to process migrants. Biden tried to push back on Stephanopoulos asking about migrants coming in because of Biden’s promise to make things better but are getting worse.
“CBS News reported on Tuesday night that more than 13,000 young migrants are being held in U.S. custody for an average of 120 hours. Legal requirements set the limit at 72 hours.”
Biden responded in third person, “The idea that Joe Biden said, ‘Come’ — because I heard the other day that they’re coming because they know I’m a nice guy. And I won’t do what Trump did. Here’s the deal: They’re not.”
Fox News reported, “Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas on Tuesday said that the U.S. is on track to encounter more migrants than it has in the last 20 years, as he defended the administration’s approach to a border surge that he described as “difficult”
ABC News posted one exclusive clip where Stephanopoulos asked on Cuomo, “If the investigation confirms the claims of women, should he resign?”
Biden said, “Yes. I think he’ll probably end up being prosecuted, too.”

Peter J. Hasson an editor at Fox News corrected Biden’s claim that migrants are not saying Biden would make things better.
Hasson wrote, “Biden is just flat wrong here,” and quoted from an article what one migrant woman said, “Biden promised us!”
“Many of the migrants said they had spend their life savings and gone into debt to pay coyotes- human smugglers-who had falsely promised them that the border was open after President Biden’s election.”
