One more time:

1. The bill was terrible, we debated that here.
2. Johnson told his caucus on January 13th that bill was a non-starter.
3. Trump didn't weigh in until after that, and when he did, he basically just echoed where the House Republicans already were on this bill - that it was terrible.

After all that, the Senate border bill had 5 democrats vote against it on February 7.

When the bill was re-introduced by Schumer, it failed again in May by an even larger margin.

Chuck Schumer’s second attempt to advance a sweeping border package failed by a wider margin than the first time, with increased opposition among both Republicans and Democrats.
