You're describing mainstream Democratic policies.

There is not a single national-level Democratic politician who advocates for open borders. If there is, please tell us who.

The feeling of an open border is due to a confluence of our asylum laws, the Constitution, and a surge in relative desirability of the United States vis-a-vis the rest of the world. The President cannot directly change any of these factors.

The reason it feels like some of that has changed is because we have a President who is flouting our asylum laws [1] and the Constitution [2], having the net effect of making our country less relatively desirable [3]

In any case, did you identify any good GOP policy ideas here?
