    Especially because in the GOP world, the US has open borders, and millions of illegal immigrants are coming in droves. So if that’s true, why delay any solution to the problem? Because the problem does not exist.

      The problem actually exists (that’s why there’s a bill which Democrats also support), but it generates great political ads, so why would Republicans want to fix it? They are not interested in the solution, just the problem.

        Just because they scream about it every day doesn’t make it true. Please show me factual sources that millions of illegal immigrants are crossing the border every single day. Show sources on how these immigrants are also all criminals. And show sources for how open the border is since according to the GOP people are just walking in.

          I never said millions are crossing the borders, I just said it is a problem, and in some states it is more visible than others.

          Republicans concentrate on the physical border, but in reality is that the majority of illegals come legally and overstay on their visas.

        I bet they’re banking on it not passing, then running ads on how Biden allows “illegals” to rape white women in swing states.
