...looks like it will kill border reform.

What a bunch of spineless Quislings the GOP has become, with a few notable exceptions.

But a border deal probably won’t happen, because Trump...

Trump opposes pretty much any deal with Biden, and that’s enough for many congressional Republicans to reject it. House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), who gets to decide whether an immigration bill gets a vote there, has said the deal would be “dead on arrival” in the House if it looks anything like news reports suggest.

Trump’s argument is transparently political: Republicans will share some of the blame for the border if they do this. “They are using this horrific Senate Bill as a way of being able to put the BORDER DISASTER onto the shoulders of the Republicans,” he said on social media. Reading between the lines, he also wants to keep attacking Biden where the president is weak and Trump is strong.
