Importantly, in the US, and before counting immigration.

Still a significant milestone though.

Fertility rate of India is below replacement.

Western countries are trying to prevent super aged societies via mass migration. Of course 1) Most of the source countries are themselves low fertility and 2) the more mass migration you have the less attractive the target country becomes.

It's just kicking the can down the road.

It's a sarcastic way of saying "there is a lot of Indian immigration".

I think it's worth keeping in mind that immigration is arguably the reason an administration this repugnant was able to get into power democratically. It's the one issue on which a small but critical mass of liberals have similar negative experiences as compared to most conservatives.

The US has one of the most generous LEGAL immigration policies in the world and there never seems to be a lack of people around the world who are willing to fill available slots.

The current administration is trying to make it so fewer people will want to violate our laws and sneak into our country.

Those two things actually have very little to do with each other. That is why some of the biggest supporters of border enforcement are those who came here through legal channels.
