Yet Joe Biden kept it for almost 1.5 years but has to change for the upcoming election.
which is a bad, bad idea. Will be another squalid tent city under the bridge within days.

Where will them millions live and how will they support themselves. I read the US is a tad bit expensive.

The policy went into effect under President Donald Trump in March 2020. Since then, migrants trying to enter the U.S. have been expelled more than 1.7 million times.
Another example of a well-thought out policy.
Why change?

Most of them are low-skilled workers so there won’t be enough work for them or chances of them moving up, they don’t really bring anything of significance to the jobs market, watch welfare and other forms of entitlements go through the roof and watch the poverty rate explode.

Many businesses are closing and again, the numbers don’t add up, why let in millions of low-skilled workers where there are less opportunities for them and ignore valuable skilled workers first that can gain benefits for them as well as for the entire nation?
That's simply not true.

Many are not coming back and that’s a real problem for the nation and more and more unskilled workers are being let in (we know why) and this administration keeps turning skilled ones away.

We already have 50,000 Homeless people and more businesses closing and then what happens to these unskilled workers? How will they be of benefit to larger blue tech industries that are about to go partially automated? What will they do and how can they survive. Biden just tripled the homeless population essentially.

Yes, but we have a pandemic, and many businesses are now closed. Biden for all his faults and rightly so is not and will not close the border and is changing the very demographics of the nation to the point we are now taking in people with fewer skills and fewer attributes and education, this doesn't help the US one bit.
That will never happen and who gets hurt by this the most? Black Americans

Something to ponder on, soon this will all be over.
So then push to put the Americans that are on the streets to work before we let in foreigners without any benefits whatsoever, not to mention it's also a national security issue
