Hmmmm.....

Both parties have historically benefited from the broken system.

Langford and other conservative leaders were close to getting a pretty right-wing bill through the Senate and Trump knew it would hurt his chances of being elected if the law addressed some of the immigration issues and removed the issue from the spotlight.

How is continuing to let in close to 2 million a year removing the issue from the spotlight?

Yes, we do. The law itself is broken. That's the point.

The law was working just fine under Trump. Totally disingenuous to say the Democrats want anything other than using all these illegals as political pawns.

Most Republican senators and representatives rejected that bill and a last minute bill trying to put responsibility on Republicans after three years of Democrats letting in millions was doomed to fail unless it said the border was being shut down and sealed up. It didn't.

So Republicans in Congress voted to do nothing. The Bill may not have been perfect but it would have addressed a lot of the issues. The Bill was also a bipartisan attempt and was endorsed by Republican leadership. Until trump turned it down.

You think the Senate Republicans who negotiated that immigration bill weren’t conservative enough?

Lie.

I guess you're just misinformed.

Before the Democrats pushed their open borders Bill you're talking about, Democrats refused to pass a Republican border bill.

Very few Republicans and it would have codified what Democrats wanted. And Trump didn't control anything but good for him that he thought the bill was bad for the country.
