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

Posted on 01/26/2024 12:49:22 PM PST by 11th_VA

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. That could endanger future aid for Ukraine in its war against Russia, which has been tied to such a deal...

“It is immoral for me to think you looked the other way because you think this is the linchpin for President Trump to win.”

No, it is immoral to codify the hordes coming in to make a deal with Biden, who does not need a deal to stop the hordes; he only needs to reverse what he did to get them here.

Thom Tillis is aware of that.

Thom Tillis is one more repulsive POS.

Trump endorsed the POS isn 2020. It won’t happen again.

Border deal??? They are using the border to get more money for Ukraine....but the problem isn’t legislation....it’s the fact that the Biden DOJ isn’t enforcing laws. The only REAL deal congress can make is to deny all funding until Biden does his job and protects the country.

I don’t know who is paying off Thom but he needs to stfu.
He has never met an illegal invader he did no like.

He pushes for amnesty and dreamer acts at every turn...he is as reliable a “conservative” as Mittens.

He is an embarrassment to NC.

“Didn’t Trump endorse and boost this pile of sh#t?”

Yes, but I believe it was more of a blanket endorsement of all the incumbent senators.

Trump edorsed and campaigned for DeSantis.

Politicians are such lovely people.

Thom. You ain’t gonna get a deal from the Dung Beetle Party that doesn’t involve nothing changing except they aren’t called illegal aliens anymore. Geez. How dumb can you be?

Republicans trying to take out Trump.

See it over and over.

As much as the Republican party leadership hates Trump, it hates those who support Trump even more. When will people wake up and see it? Oh, I know: probably never.

Brain-dead "conservatives" think that if they can just elect the "right sort" of Republican, that'll save the country. Problem is, those who run the Republican party today don't want the country "saved." They, like the Dems, want it transformed.

.
In his Campaign, he ran saying he would fight the Liberals in DC and stand up for Conservative families.

He was going to shut down Pelosi and Schumer.

You see, its all about spending and lathering in the Pork now.

I wish the GOP would break out in chants of ”H-R-2” throughout the speech…

From your keyboard to God's monitor.

Every single Freeper should be lighting up their Rep's and Senator's phones and emails with exactly this every damn' day until the SOTU.
