President Joe Biden is facing renewed criticism over past remarks that he made while on the campaign trail about immigration-related issues on the southern border.

The remarks, which come from a September 2019 Democratic presidential debate, recirculated online as Biden deals with a crisis that has unfolded under his leadership on the southern border.

When asked by host Jorge Ramos about deportations that happened during the Obama-era and why Latinos should trust Biden, Biden responded, “What Latinos should look at is comparing this president to the president we have is outrageous, number one.”

“We didn’t lock people up in cages,” Biden claimed. “We didn’t separate families. We didn’t do all of those things, number one.” As USA Today noted in an Aug. 2020 fact check, the Obama administration approved and built the so-called “cages” designed to temporarily hold migrant minors.

A few moments later, Biden stated:

What I would do as president is several more things, because things have changed. I would, in fact, make sure that there is, we immediately surge to the border — all those people are seeking asylum, they deserve to be heard. That’s who we are. We’re a nation who says, if you want to flee, and you’re freeing oppression, you should come.

Democrats, including Nancy Pelosi and Julián Castro, have made claims that Biden is not responsible for the border crisis because he was left with an unstable immigration system, and that he is only handling problems left by the previous administration.

Many, however, believe that Biden’s open border policies are what caused countless migrants to approach the borders with hopes of crossing into the US.

When asked about the correlation of a massive surge in illegal migration with the exit of President Donald Trump and the inauguration of open-borders advocate Joe Biden, Biden administration coordinator for the southwestern border on the National Security Council Roberta Jacobson admitted that the two events were related.

“Well, first of all, one of the things I think is important is we’ve seen surges before, surges tend to respond to hope, and there was a significant hope for a more humane policy after four years of, you know pent up demand,” Jacobson said. “So I don’t know whether I would call that a coincidence, but I certainly think the idea that a more humane policy would be in place may have driven people to make that decision.”
