The president used the term to describe Jose Antonio Ibarra, a Venezuelan who crossed the border into the U.S. and has been charged with the murder of Laken Riley.

It's like saying "Im sorry I used the N word. Anyway, we'll be bringing back segregated classrooms to protect white kids from the black crisis."
Not even close. We're referring to it as "illegal" not "the I word".
I'm not happy Biden said it either, but what you're describing is on a completely different level.
drowning kids in barbed wire is quite a level
And very different from the original point we were discussing.
My point is apologizing for words is pointless when the actions are worse. He's apologizing for how he refers to migrants, but with actions he is making their lives worse, he and congress are pushing for even more aggressive action at the border, where currently its so bad that women and children have been drowning in barbed wire. He should keep calling them illegals because that's how he's treating them, that's why he called them that in the first place.
