The Biden administration reportedly presided over the highest level of net migration in American history after rapidly unwinding President Donald Trump’s policies to restrict illegal immigration. Smith and the caller clashed on the show over whether the Biden administration’s border policy was lax.
“I just don’t remember a point in time when Biden allowed open borders,” the caller said.
“Yeah, he did. Stop that. Stop that. No, no, no, no, no. You ain’t calling up on this show with that. We saw the border crisis,” Smith said. “We saw the borders being flooded … It’s undeniable. Millions of people came into this country. They walked through the border. Stop that … Don’t call me with that BS.”
The caller claimed the Biden administration attempted to control the border and suggested Smith was engaging in “hyperbole.” Smith disagreed.
“They tried to course-correct in the end. But for a vast majority of time, they had open borders and they were telling us there was no border crisis when there was a border crisis,” Smith said. “That is a lie. Now, they did try to course-correct it later on in the presidency. But it doesn’t negate the fact that it was after millions crossed the border! It’s undeniable!”
