Nope.
The international law stipulates that if you are in danger of death or jail for political reason or group persecution (like Jews in Germany), you should be given asylum.

Providing that
YOU MUST APLY FOR ASYLUM IN THE FIRST COUNTRY IT IS SAFE FOR YOU TO DO!

That at minimum Mexico, if not e.g. Guatemala or Ecuador.
Practically only Cuban refuges can apply for asylum in the US, nd only if they can prove thay were pesecuted there.

It is POLITICAL asylum.
Fist of all you have to be persecuted for political or religious or nationality reason.
E. G. President Trump would have legitimate claims of asylum in Canada or Mexico.

If you are just born in shitty country, that is not reason to ask for asylum.

These people mix up asylum (rater exceptional thing) and immigration. If you coming from shitty country, you are free to apply there, for immigration from there here. (Legal immigration)

And US is free to grand you that wish or not (It is deems you will be good for US).

Just showing illegally in the US and claiming you were in danger because gangs were operating nearby where you were living is not at all reason to grant asylum!

If I remember correctly, used to be (or still is) a law that Cubans who reached US soil automatically got full refugee status. Only proof necessary for the claim was Cubanity.
