President Biden on Tuesday urged migrants not to make the journey to the U.S. as his administration struggles to get a handle on a surge at the southern border.
"I can say quite clearly don't come over," Biden told George Stephanopoulos of ABC News in an interview scheduled to air Wednesday morning. "Don't leave your town or city or community."
Biden conceded the surge "could be" worse than the one that prompted a significant crackdown from the Trump administration and threats to close the border in 2019 but said it was not there yet.
Biden echoed what other administration officials have said in recent weeks as the situation worsens, saying his team needs time to get the system set up to process such large numbers of migrants.
The president pushed back on arguments that migrants are crossing in large numbers because Biden has eased several Trump-era policies meant to curb immigration.
"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. Here's the deal: They're not," Biden said.

Did he say ‘Please’?
Who needs a wall? We have Biden asking nicely.
Maybe he should say it to Soros.
Oh....that should fix it. [/s]
Um. Dude. They're wearing your T-Shirt.
Probably just political theater for media viewers in US territory.
If they are really getting concerned about the influx numbers, then these comments will be repeated daily by the Mexican and Central American press and will lead up to stories about the Mexican government sending migrants back to the south.
Until those kinds of stories are put out regularly by the press south of the US territory border, the US rulers aren’t interested in changing anything.
Yeah, high-energy Joe’s proclamations could convince anyone.
The Idiot Biden was always an idiot, now he’s senile, too.
And BOTH parties wanted Trump gone so bad they inflicted this on us.

Totally useless comment by the Demented One, but it's more than the average Republican has said. We are so screwed.
Three months too late, even if they took him seriously, which no one does.
The Caravans were starting up even before last Thanksgiving.
Everyone could see which side had stolen the election.
Aren’t most the Dems always saying things like
“No one is illegal!”?
That has been the Dem mantra for many years.
Biden tells migrants “just kidding.”
Media redefines the crisis at the border to be a lack of facilities to welcome the invaders...
Amazing what they can, and will, do.

These are the promises that SloJoe’s handlers made.
It sure sounds like an invitation to hit the border on Day 0ne.
Whoever is controlling Biden does not give a hoot about these miserable people.
They are using the cartels to implement their evil border policy.
