How come none of you are talking about the main problem, people crossing the border LEGALLY seeking asylum?

honest question...what is your proposed solution to this? when there are hundreds of thousands of people, literal hordes, walking to the border claiming asylum status, how do you ever go about determining which ones are being made in good faith? we'd have to have twenty thousand case workers down there trying to sort through it all. i know this, you know this, the entire world knows this. so why do you even bother with his fiction that somehow this is the equivalent of a few poor bastards from east germany tryign to escape to the West? it's so intellectually dishonest that it borders on comical.

We can talk about that too if you want. Almost every single one of those asylum claims are bullshite, and everyone knows it.

Regardless, I’ve told you a substantive reason I oppose the bill. Multiple in fact. My opposition is not political or concerned with who gets credit or whatever. I oppose the bill because it’s bad policy.
