And those were all part of the border bill that the GOP rejected. Which is why folks keep pointing out that it was self-defeating for the GOP to torpedo it, when it would have increased those resources.

Wasn't self-defeating, as Trump is sitting in the White House and we have a secure border now.
BTW, what's not being mentioned here is the wink-and-a-nod nature of this law that Biden and/or a theoretical President Harris would have used it for.

He/She wouldn't have done a damn thing to lock the border down until the 5k/day limit hit. Then he/she may have done something about it. But mostly likely not. Meanwhile, the enhanced processing resources would have been waving the illegals right on through on an expedited basis.

All the while Harris/Biden would have gotten to tout their bipartisan border bill and look how awesome it is that we're solving the problem.

The thing is...that bill solved the democrats' political problem. Nothing more.


So, no. Not self defeating. The first rule of any legislation that has broad support from democrats is to question the premise of said legislation and reason out what they really want it for. In this case, Biden and/or Harris would have used it to effectively codify 1.8M illegals into the country year after year.

Blowing up that bill meant the United States dodged a bullet; we were 100000% correct on this score.
