Locking in another 1.8M illegals a year...doesn't reduce the problem.

You're not "locking in" anything. You're just imposing additional restrictions if too many people show up at the border claiming asylum at once.

If a city adopts an ordinance authorizing the mayor to declare a curfew if there are ten homicides in a day, that's not "locking in" 3,650 murders.

Your timeline is off. This bill didn't even rise to the level of DOA as Johnson killed it before Schumer sent it over. That was before Trump even weighed in.

My mistake. Johnson declared that if the Senate bill was passed as is it would be DOA on a Friday, and on that Monday Trump said that he wanted the negotiations stopped and that he would take the blame for it. Had Trump come out the other way, Johnson would have flopped more than a fish to support whatever revised bill came out of the discussions.
