The bottom line is that the GOP doesn't really want to solve the immigration problem. They'd rather keep it as a wedge issue. They just love showing up at the border for a photo op with Fox News wearing their latest in border junket fashion from REI.
Yawn. The Dems had their change under Obama and punted so plenty of blame to go around, seeing the blame game is all you want to talk about.

Add to that, you seem to have trouble discerning between policy and implementation. We have sufficient laws today to keep the situation from deteriorating by the day, but Biden and company don't seem to want to enforce those laws.
