GOP senator: ‘Immoral’ to kill border deal to help Trump
The Hill ^ | Jan 26, 2024

Sen. Thom Tillis (R-N.C.) argued it is “immoral” for Republicans to reject a border deal to help former President Trump.

“I didn’t come here to have the president as a boss or a candidate as a boss. I came here to pass good, solid policy,” Tillis said Thursday, first reported by NBC News. “It is immoral for me to think you looked the other way because you think this is the linchpin for President Trump to win.”

Members on both sides of the aisle are upset with Trump’s attempt to kill the border deal to deny President Biden a legislative win. His recent remarks calling for GOP members to oppose a border deal that isn’t H.R. 2 have complicated things for the Senate.

With two solid wins for Trump in Iowa and New Hampshire and a path toward becoming the Republican presidential nominee, Trump’s allies in the Senate are attempting to kill the border package.

Trump successfully SHUT DOWN the border to illegal crossings, there were very few and the border was pretty secure.

What exactly needs to changed and what exactly needs fixing other than the executive in charge???

Contextual BS.

Stopping the flood of Illegal Aliens is the point. The side effect of this “helping” President Trump is incidental and irrelevant.

Tillis can eat shiite and live.

Right. It is not to aid the import of illegals into this country.

The idea that a law will stop this illegal behavior on the part of the regime is laughable. The reason there is a crisis is because they ignore existing laws...

There shouldn’t be a border deal, or even a discussions of a border deal, or even the suggestion that there should be a a border deal.

Fedgub is supposed to defend our border without reservation or limitation — not use it as currency in other policy debates.

They all Hate Trump and the base.

Thom Tillis is totally silent about Joe’s Corruption, and now he wants to give cover to Joe, when it’s just throwing away more money. Enforcement won’t change.

Massie has come out in recent days, too. He says Trump needs to be held accountable. Who represents the middle Tax Payers?

The so called border bill was NOT to help out the border, it was just so that the illegals could be processed, that is what the money would have been used for, so yeah F that
