You either don’t know how omnibus bills work or you are being purposely dishonest. Those bills made concessions about the border yes, but were also chock full of deal-breaker items the Democrats slipped in. Both sides do this. You cannot actually sit here and pretend it was simply a “border bill”. Both parties do this purposely to create gridlock. Like i said, you either genuinely did not know this or you are being dishonest on purpose.This is your usual response. Avoid answering the question and try to obfuscate with irrelevant insults and nonsense.
I'll ask the question again. How are we supposed to take the border issue as a serious issue in deciding the presidential election? Earlier this year, a bipartisan bill was initially agreed to that gave the Republicans almost everything that they want on the border issue. It could be law of the land by now, but Trump wanted the border bogeyman to use as campaign fodder and instructed his minions to scuttle the thing. I think it's a demonstrated fact that both sides of the aisle want to reduce illegal immigration. In the Republican case...it's just not until they're through using it to try to win the election.
