Democrats say Republicans will not make a deal in principle to use the migrant issue in the election race.
Donald Trump opposed a compromise agreement with the White House, which would include strengthening the border with Mexico and providing military assistance to Ukraine. He wrote about this on his own social network The Truth.
“I believe we should not have a border deal at all unless we get EVERYTHING to stop the INVASION of millions and millions of people out of nowhere into our (…) country. Also, I have no doubt that our House Speaker Mike Johnson will only make an agreement that is ideal for the border,” Trump wrote.
It is noteworthy that the aforementioned Speaker of the House of Representatives Mike Johnson openly admitted to the American media that he constantly consults with Trump about concluding a deal with the White House.
“President Trump is not wrong. He and I have talked about this quite often. I talked to him about the same topic the night before last,” Johnson said, adding that he talks to Trump “every few days.”
Democratic Congressman Jamie Raskin recently said that Republicans are “doing Donald Trump’s bidding and actively obstructing a bipartisan border agreement.” According to Democrats, Republicans do not want a border agreement (and therefore aid to Ukraine) to be concluded before the presidential election in November 2024, since this issue will be central to Trump’s election campaign.

Confirms he’s a bloody idiotic herk
I have the feeling Republicans don’t really know when to use capital letters.

Fuck Trump! GO NIKKI!
So I guess it never really was about US security on the Southern border it was always about Russian security and Putin’s success.
I think that’s been clear for a while.
To hear the Orange Baboon and his legislative terrorists, the urgency represented by the migratory flow (+300,000 in December) seems to be able to wait for months before being able to make decisions!
They are so obsessed with Ukraine, I wouldn’t be surprised to hear Miss Greene mix things up at some point by unconsciously talking about building a wall on the Ukrainian border to stop the invasion (of migrants?)…
Mind you, that wouldn’t be a bad idea!
Even Republicans (those who still have some political dignity) recognize that the package contains measures that have been expected for years:
“There are a number of pieces in there that are good, conservative border policies that we’ve been trying to get done for years,” John Thune
“To lose this opportunity to get it passed into law I think is malpractice,” Thom Tillis
A remarkable assertion that must be emphasized:
“If we fail, I want every single [opponent] to go on record as owning what I think will be one of the worst strategic decisions members of Congress will make in their careers,” Thom Tillis
