President Joe Biden appeared to be caught off guard during a recent interview when a reporter suggested that "not one" migrant child separated from their families under the Trump administration has been reunited with their parents amid the ongoing immigration crisis.

What happened?

During the interview that aired Friday, NBC "Today" reporter Craig Melvin reminded the president of a campaign pledge he made last year to reunite with their parents migrant children who had reportedly been separated from their families under the Trump administration.

"I don't think that's true, but that could be," Biden responded to the charge, adding, "The thing is, we don't know yet where those kids are."

"We're trying like hell to figure out what happened," he continued. "It's almost like being a sleuth and we're still continuing to try like hell to find out where they are."

What else?

Since the start of Biden's presidency, the problem of managing unaccompanied migrant children has only been exacerbated as an unprecedented number of migrants — many of them children without their parents or other guardians — have surged into the country in anticipation of lenient treatment from the Biden administration.

The president's comments are troubling, to say the least, given that thousands of unaccompanied minors were reportedly being held in cramped, cage-like Border Patrol facilities in recent weeks for longer than is legally permitted.

Anything else?

Elsewhere in the interview, rather than owning up to his administration's failures, Biden blamed former President Donald Trump's administration for the crisis.-- excerpt, rest at link above --
