Biden Does NOT need a BILL to close the border
He only needs a PEN. Thats all he needed to open it.
Thats all he needed to close it. Thats all Trump needed.
Maybe this is just Proof Trump is better than Biden.

The family of ex-Marine Paul Whelan, 48, learnt of his arrest on Monday from news reports after wondering why they had not heard from him for days.
His twin brother David Whelan says he knew Russia well and cannot believe he would have broken any laws.
Russia's FSB state security agency says he was "caught spying" in Moscow.
The Michigan man was charged with the crime of espionage, for which he could be sentenced to at least 10 years in prison.
The US state department has requested consular access after being notified by the Russian authorities of the detention.
Spy scandals have erupted between Russia and America at regular intervals since the Cold War, while Russia's actions in Ukraine since 2014, and allegations of Russian meddling in the 2016 US presidential election, have seen relations plummet.
What was Paul Whelan doing in Russia?
The FSB says he was detained "during an act of espionage", a wording which implies that Mr Whelan was caught red-handed, the BBC's Sarah Rainsford reports.

In a statement tweeted by David Whelan, his family said it had been out of character for him not to be in contact even when travelling.
