That may be kind, but it's a loser as a political stance. America doesn't want this.

of the federal government, not each individual state. A patchwork of states with different immigration laws would be a disaster.

The feds are asleep at the wheel as usual. What are border states to do?? This is a serious issue that GOPigs and MAGAts are blaming on Democrats! We can't let them have it like we did in 2016!

Every republican in the country will continue to say the border is "wide open" every time they are in front of a camera or microphone. They will do this as long as Democrats are in control. And the fact that they do this is not only a lie, it is contributing to the problem by telling the whole world our border is open to everyone.

And saying the Biden administration is "asleep at the wheel" is a republican talking point and does not belong here. It is also incorrect and you should consider deleting it.

make their followers fearful of the unknown.They never mention it when they have the W.H.
