"Trump today said he wants Biden to apologize because it looks like Biden was adopting his policy," Maher said during a panel discussion on his show "Real Time with Bill Maher." "This does not look good for the Democrats."
Maher's criticism comes as the Biden administration faces growing pressure over its handling of the border crisis. The number of illegal border crossings has reached record levels in recent months, and the administration has been struggling to keep up with the influx of migrants.
Biden has reversed some of his campaign promises on immigration, such as his pledge to end the construction of the border wall. Biden has also been criticized for his decision to end the Trump administration's "Remain in Mexico" policy, which required asylum seekers to wait in Mexico while their cases were processed.
Maher argued that the Biden administration's border policy reversal is a mistake because it will appeal to Trump voters and alienate Democratic voters.
"The Democrats are in a real bind here," Maher said. "They either have to stick to their principles and let the border crisis continue, or they have to adopt Trump's policies and alienate their base."
Maher's comments are likely to resonate with some Democrats who are concerned about the Biden administration's handling of the border crisis. However, it is important to note that there is a wide range of views on the Biden administration's border policy. Some people believe that the administration is doing a good job of managing the border crisis, while others believe that the administration is not doing enough to address the problem.
