Here’s how Biden can make Republicans pay for tanking the border deal

When President Joe Biden visits Brownsville, Texas, on Thursday, he will be working to raise awareness about congressional Republicans tanking a bipartisan border deal aimed at addressing an influx of migrants.

In fact, when congressional Republicans were preparing to torpedo their own deal earlier this month at Donald Trump's direction, Biden promised they would live to regret it. “If the bill fails, I want to be absolutely clear about something: The American people are going to know why it fails," Biden warned.

On Thursday, Biden will kickstart that public education, and new polling suggests his efforts are both needed and could pay off handsomely with voters.
