Earlier this summer he had republicans torpedo their own bill. A bill intended to fix the border issues he’s been raving about.

that man has only tried to fix one thing ever, and that was the election after he lost, and he sucked at that tbf. His minions have affixed their mouths to his lil pig-in-a-blanket, but that’s about it

Because the bill was mainly for funding the Ukraine and Israeli wars. Gotta read the fine print. The funding in the Border bill was divided mostly to fund foreign conflicts.

Wrong.

The same republicans passed a bill with that same funding proposal weeks later.

Edit for clarity: passed a bill with the same foreign conflict funding proposals

Also, to add the actual reason he told them to torpedo it, it was literally just so that trump had something to rile up his base around. He created a problem so that he could then convince people he was the only one who could solve the problem. He’s a shill. A schmuck. A self serving, apathetic piece of shit.
