The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

...and since Trump basically told the GOP not to do anything on border security, there's not much that Biden or the Democrats can do to address the problem.

Serious question. Let's suppose Biden wins (likely), we get a House majority (possible), and a 60 vote Senate (unlikely). What, if anything, do you think the Dems would do? Certainly not the compromise bill that was killed (that was mostly restrictions, and didn't even address DREAMERs). Despite the right-wing bubble, I don't believe they would open the border. Even among Dems, there isn't really support for that.

I'm thinking they would deal with DREAMERs, probably approve more funding for the immigration judiciary and BP, NOT approve funding for detention centers or a wall. Anything else?
