The Border Deal was, like most bipartisan enterprises, a Catch 22.
A. Either Democrats would get a border deal that would let them keep the border open while also getting credit for a legislative solution.
B. Or they would get to blame Republicans for the border crisis.
Table A would have been nice, but they’ll happily take Table B. Much like ‘War Games’, the only way to win this one would have been not to play, but a few Senate Republicans insisted on letting the Gang 3 set them up to lose.
And Dems, from Biden on down, and their media are in full swing claiming that Trump made Republicans tank the border deal in order to sabotage Biden.
Like most forms of projection, the truth is backward.
Biden and the Dems were not really expecting a border deal. By the time they unveiled their proposal, Speaker Mike Johnson had already warned them that it would be dead in the House. They went ahead and carried on, for the same reason that the House voted on an Israel bill, and for the same reason that both houses repeatedly vote on things they know will not pass in the other.
How much of the public can be convinced now that the border crisis is the fault of Republicans? Probably not that many Republicans or even Independents, but it’s a message that Democrats will feel comfortable with and you can expect the media to bring it up every time Republicans refer to the border crisis.
That’s what this was really about.
Had Biden and the Democrats seriously wanted to secure the border, the bill would have done that, instead of providing discretionary opportunities to possibly secure the border, if Biden chooses to use them, while still bringing millions of illegal invaders into America and adding less than a week’s worth of detention capacity.
Whether Republicans will effectively be able to make those arguments is another question.
The Blame Game 🙂
Blame is what it’s ALWAYS been about. Biden’s been chirping, “It’s Trump’s fault” for weeks now. While Democrats and Never-Trumpers might be dull enough to convince themselves of this nonsense, the American people are not. It’s the same reason that “NONE OF THE CANDIDATES LISTED” won the Nevada primary.
If you haven’t seen Trump’s new campaign ad, “Biden’s giving you the middle finger”, the Trump team puts an exclamation point on the Biden administration’s willful destruction of American sovereignty by using their own soundbites against them. While the ad was unnecessary for most of us, it does put a fine point on it…and the fault is ALL Joe’s. The fact that Biden didn’t issue an executive order years ago to close the border is all the proof anyone really needs.
How many times does Mitch McConnell have to prove he’s not the master politician people seem to think he is. Sure he understands parliamentary procedure, but he is otherwise incompetent as the leader of the Senate GOP.

Of course. He planned to blame Trump. He honestly had a plan.
Honesty and planning are Biden Hallmarks.
The left plays politics like a Chess game mixed with slight of hand. Don’t let the right hand know what the left is doing.
With the “Defund the Police”, “Bail and Criminal Justice Reform” I have wondered, are they nuts? Today I saw something that caused me to blink. Apparently with the increase in crime, DC is implementing new laws to curb this new crime wave. You know, the one they created.
Was the whole “Defund/Reform” debacle actually planned so the left could create public fear, to justify passing new laws that restrict freedoms? The left could claim new laws are required on this pretext. The same reasoning could apply to the border crap, like that new bill. Why do we need a new bill when the old laws haven’t been enforced? Doesn’t that new bill give $62 billion of the $118 billion to Ukraine? That isn’t a border bill.
Just like blaming gun ownership for mass shooting in Gun Free Zones or Blaming Global Warming/Climate Change on everything from Floods to Burnt toast Liberal Pinheads are always blaming others
The depravity and psychopathy of the democrat party can only be removed by a lobotomy.
The woke leftist DEI CRT democrat Kennedy family knows all about lobotomies.
Hell, Joe Kennedy lobotomized is own daughter because he thought she was an embarrassment to the family’s
own political prospects.
When it comes to honesty and fair play the Democrats are completely deficient. They have no scruples and the only morality they have is to obtain what they desire by any foul and detestable means they can conjure up. Their loyalty is not to the people of this nation but to themselves.
