Former President Donald Trump’s push to kill a bipartisan immigration deal may now derail a major national security package, forcing Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell to suggest a new course of action and endangering aid to Ukraine and Israel in the process.
The old guard doesn’t want those things, but the problem is that if you rant about problems you don’t want to solve because they’re politically useful, eventually people will start to believe you. The McConnells want to use the threat of immigrants to get elected and pass Conservative bills; the Marj Greenes want to “solve” it, preferably finally.
The right wing sure is fond of their final solutions.
