That is just it. You are reacting to a year old dog whistle.
Here is the realiyy of the situation....
Nevertheless, many Trump-era policies remain in effect, particularly the more technical ones: 89 of the Biden administration’s 296 immigration executive actions to date have undone or started to undo Trump administration actions, leaving many more in place. This could be for a range of reasons, including that the Biden administration is not prioritizing their reversal, has concluded their reversal would be difficult, is facing bureaucratic resistance, or, in some cases, supports them.
So, to recap, " the more technical policies from the previous admin ARE STILL IN PLACE."
