Democrats don't favor "open borders". Open borders would be the antithesis towards national security and protecting this country. The issue, based from my somewhat ignorant perspective, stems more towards a frustration that, this year, Trump had the government shut down so he could get his wall funding, but had to reopen the government and didn't get the funding for the wall, and you presumably not liking that outcome since it set the party back as it meant the president failed in one of his major goals.
As for this particular bout of whataboutism, I'll play along. We don't need to make fancy resorts that Candace Owens claims we have given immigrants with Zumba classes and spa treatments, since that's ludicrous and airheaded, even for someone as obnoxious as her. That being said, an unfortunate reality is that, right now, we must consider that there is a rise of immigration coming in from the south and that we need to factor this in regarding processing and handling, which may require the construction of more facilities along the southern border to handle the influx, to start. This can help curb overcrowding. The government is always hiring for Border Patrol in its various departments, but considering that the people in charge change during presidential administrations, and the people in charge tend to follow along with ideologies of said president in charge, in a perfect world, you could have this be operated by a non-partisan, third party group, but that would most likely violate several laws. Therefore, you're always going to have issues of years with favorable and unfavorable policies towards asylum seekers and other illegal activities. That's an unfortunate reality.
