You are most likely correct but what the heck, if there ever was a time to dig in their heels, it is now for the house republicans.

I would tend to agree. I don't think it will happen. Johnson is cowed by Trump (just my impression of him), and as an article I read explained, he is showing both his inexperience and his inability to control the "Freedom Caucus" within his ranks. Though, to be fair, the far-right is really difficult to control. They ousted the last speaker. Johnson is a novice compared to the last several speakers we have had (both Rep and Dem). Frankly, I don't think he's up to the job.

I expect no movement on the border for a LOOOOOOOONG time. Not unless you get a trifecta and 60 votes in the Senate. Otherwise, MAGA let this chance slip through the fingers. Heck, they spat on it and tossed it back.
