Biden speak about the border control he was planning to make better at the SOTU.
But GOP to not give the vote.
But GOP to not give the vote! Now complain Biden doing nothing.
Just dirty GOP work and what a layer Katie Britt is.
@flexghost
Republicans looking like fucking idiots is always a good time, but like... you all heard the actual substance of this right? Are we not talking about that?
You're cheering on "the toughest set of border security reforms we’ve ever seen in this country?" Unprecedented, unilateral executive power over the borders? Hiring cops by the hundreds and hundreds?
Isn't literally all of that, you know, exactly in line with the Republican Party platform?
@jargoggles@flexghost It is, but they never really wanted it to happen, and Biden made it happen. They can't complain he was holding it back. They wanted to own him, and got owned.
@coyoty@flexghost
Republicans didn't want Biden to be the one to pass it because they feel like it's a political win for him. That's not my opinion, that's the prevailing take on why it got gridlocked.
Passing a bill that Republicans would have gleefully supported if Trump were president isn't the win people are making this out to be.
@jargoggles@coyoty@flexghost that’s the problem with the discourse on Biden and Trump getting flattened down to a question of who’s more “fit” to be in office. It gets liberals to cheer Biden on for doing heinous shit better than Trump because it proves he’s better at being president than Trump—even though “Trump but competent” is the darkest timeline and they should be ashamed by the degree that Biden has adopted and expanded Trump’s border policy.
@flexghost If this is dementia, it’s definitely the kind I can support another 4 years of. None of these stable genius R’s heckle-failing at him can keep up. 😹
@flexghost It truly is.. I just love how Pres. Biden pokes insults at the previous idiot without ever mentioning his name... And while all this is happening, that as Johnson can only sit there and look like a bigger...as...
