Trump had a republican senate and Congress and absolutely failed to do anything regarding the border the first time. Let's be honest: no politician cares about the border. Probably because they know it's a losing issue. Immigration is the new abortion.
You write " No bill of which Democratic senators approve will solve the problem. "
But the thing is, you need Democrat votes to pass a bill. There will not be a filibuster-proof GOP Senate majority, unless you're purely wishcasting. So this means that there will be no border fix because any bill requires some Democrat senators to vote for it, and by definition, that won't solve the problem. Which reveals the reality: Republicans do not WANT a border solution. They want to run on "invasion invasion invasion." Winning Dobbs has been an utter disaster, and the fix that the base wants- the mass deportation by force of millions of people- will be an utter electoral disaster, and the smart people in the room, at least, recognize that. (I mean, it would also be an utter moral and economic disaster, but clearly they don't care about that.)
When you make compromise and incremental achievement a dirty word, you cut off your own nose to spite your face. Real Americans want the government to actually try to fix immigration law. And instead we have a group of hardliners who have torpedoed every single bill in my lifetime.
That bill was crafted to get Biden off the hook by making it look as if something was being done while actually doing next to nothing to secure the border. If that's an "incremental achievement," no thanks.
That’s fucking rich considering the GOP hasn’t even offered a policy since Reagan. You don’t want to fucking fix it they won’t have anything to grandstand on oh my God compared to the GOP, I suppose the Democrats didn’t look like a legitimate party. That’s fucking sad imagine that imagine the Absolute ridiculousness and criminality of an entity that could make the Democratic Party look legitimate. The immigration situation is nothing but a political football. Immigration is not one of the issues or societal categories that contribute to America’s Third World shit hole status. Not even in the top 1000. White guys on the other hand like you are definitely in the top three. Hell they are the top three. Fuck all they do is financially support red states. Immigrants who are undocumented waiting on asylum Protocol contribute 20 to 50 times more to state and federal treasury and they ever received. Ever. Think about it all they receive is emergency room healthcare just like a poor person of any color in America with no insurance. That’s it. If they have a job as a regular paycheck, they’re contributing to Medicare Medicaid Social Security that they will never receive. Red states on the other hand all two of single one of them, receive more from the federal government then they contribute. Therefore, as I said earlier in the diatribe explaining your insanity, undocumented immigrants support and subsidize red states.
The fucking immigration policies haven’t really changed in Clinton when they were instituted. The GOP has had complete control of government far more than their opposition since Reagan and have done not a fucking thing about it but grandstand. It’s ridiculous. It’s not on the list of things that make us a Third World shit off. Dumb white guys like you are definitely in the top three. How they might be offering
What a diatribe of nonsensical gibberish. Undocumented immigrants seeking asylum don’t receive a fraction of 1% what red states do you from blue states. Only in Chicago and New York and a few other instances do any of them receive anything. In fact, those that have been here for years and seeking asylum And the numbers encompassing their entirety prove that they contribute far more to state and federal treasury than they ever receive since over 98% of them receive nothing but emergency room healthcare and pay into Medicare Medicaid and Social Security and what not, they essentially subsidize red states who totally receive more than they contribute to the federal government. That’s just one issue you brought up that is bullshit. The rest of it is a train load of bovine fecal matter.
(1) Look at the mayor of Denver cutting services to residents (eg DMV) to pay for the cost of illegals in his sanctuary city (I could educate you, but it would be casting pearls before the swine).
(2) You certainly are passionate, but not very smart.
Every single thing I said is true. What you said is irrelevant. Cherry picking bullshit non-relevant nonsense. Who’s not open to the possibility of learning something here?
You are the proudly ignorant person in this exchange

And Biden made an admittedly bad situation much, much worse.

No bill’s better than a bad bill. And the now-defunct bipartisan Senate bill was a bad bill.
When you make compromise and incremental achievement a dirty word, you cut off your own nose to spite your face. Real Americans want the government to actually try to fix immigration law. And instead we have a group of hardliners who have torpedoed every single bill in my lifetime.

Next to nothing is better than nothing, in my opinion. Considering nothing is almost certainly what we will get otherwise.

The Dems are about to (re) discover Mencken's axiom ("...good and hard.").
Dem voters gloried in virtue signalling - sanctuary cities and financial support for illegals.
It was fun and easy when TX/AZ bore the brunt of the pain.
But the chickens are coming home to roost.
Financial costs, fewer scarce resources, and plain inconvenience is showing Dem voters that votes have consequences.
Open borders are no longer a cost free way to demonstrate superiority.
And the liberal politicians dimly perceive danger. They hope that they can get past 11/24 without paying a significant price. Don't know.
But a significant number of centrist voters are awakening to the realities of open borders.
And a significant number of conservative voters see the border as a hill worth standing for.

OK Denver a few municipalities.
