As much as the blame can be placed at Bidens feet, congress is the problem here.

As much as the blame can be placed at Bidens feet, congress is the problem here.
To that fact, are you aware that Trump has instructed his supporters in Congress to vote against any bills that would fund border protection so he can run on it in November?
“I do not think we should do a Border Deal, at all, unless we get EVERYTHING needed to shut down the INVASION of Millions & Millions of people,” Trump posted on social media this week.
Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell, meanwhile, has been strongly making the case for the deal. He’s told fellow Republicans that the border package, which he insisted be paired with Biden’s $110 billion request for war aid for Ukraine, Israel and other national security priorities, is a rare opportunity to get stronger policies through Congress.
not willing to do too damn much right now to help a Democrat and to help Joe Biden’s approval rating. …I will not help the Democrats try to improve this man’s dismal approval ratings. I’m not going to do it. Why would I?
I do not think we should do a Border Deal, at all, unless we get EVERYTHING needed to shut down the INVASION of Millions & Millions of people, many from parts unknown, into our once great, but soon to be great again, Country! Also, I have no doubt that our wonderful Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, will only make a deal that is PERFECT ON THE BORDER. Remember, without Strong Borders and Honest Elections, we don’t have a Country!!

If the border is such an immediate issue, shouldn't you want it fixed now and not a year from now when it might be more beneficial to your political party?

“I would encourage (chief Senate GOP negotiator) James Lankford and other conservatives to produce a work product with which they will shortly allow conservatives like myself to review it and take heart that there are a number of us who won’t be looking to third parties and assessing the propriety of passing this bipartisan proposal,” Young said.

You mean this one?
HR2

It passed the house over 8 months ago. This is the Senate and Joe Biden not the MAGA movement stopping a f'n thing.
It addresses everything.
Which boarder deal? The one that doesn't actually exist?
