So then they should counter offer, and start the negotiations.
Instead they went home.
They scream and scream that the border is an emergency, a crisis costing us more and more every day, and instead of negotiating to get something done, they went home.
The two crisis’s are different requiring different solutions, and fighting a war against Russia is of course more expensive than adding security to a homeland border.
But anyway, the GOP doesn’t care about either. They went home.
As far as I can tell the dems are really anger the reps picked a new speaker who’s smart enough to pass a temp CR that does not end on Christmas. They have been lashing out since he won. This is just another example…
So in your world, somehow 12% to the US of what the Ukraine gets is actually a deal because border security for the Ukraine costs more than a border security for the US.
That’s really your argument?
And you complain that they didn’t negotiate. But walking away from the table when a ridicules offer is made IS negotiating. It’s saying, come back when you are serious. Also, if dums are so fired up on border security, wheres the senate bill?
