Let's hear from some Republicans who actually know what's in the bill, shall we?...

Sen. James Lankford (R-Okla.), the GOP’s lead negotiator on a deal pairing immigration changes with assistance to Ukraine said:
"Right now, they’re all functioning off of internet rumors of what’s in the bill, and many of them are false."

"It is interesting. Four months ago we Republicans locked arms together and said, We’re not going to give you money for this. (Helping the people of Ukraine)
We want a change in immigration law. Now, a few months later, when we’re finally getting to the end, they’re like, Oh, just kidding. I actually don’t want a change in law because it’s a presidential election year."

"We all have an oath to the Constitution, and we have a commitment to say, ‘We’re gonna do whatever we can to be able to secure the border,’
It is our constitutional obligation to be able to secure our country as fast as we can secure our country."

Or Sen. Mitt Romney...

"The border is a very important issue for Donald Trump, and the fact that he would communicate to Republican senators and congresspeople that
he doesn’t want us to solve the border problem because he wants to blame Joe Biden for it is really appalling."

Immigration has been Trump’s signature issue, dating back to his first presidential campaign news conference on June 16, 2015.
Trump was the first president in 28 years to lose re-election.
He lost the most jobs of any president since Herbert Hoover.
He cannot lose his signature issue also!
