Trump has said Republicans should say “no” to any deal that falls short of “everything needed” to stop the flow of migrants, a message that pointedly puts pressure on new Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) to walk the line. Johnson has been under pressure from the Senate GOP and the White House to agree to an emerging Senate deal.
Members of McConnell’s leadership team immediately pushed back against what appeared to be an attempt by Trump to tank the Senate deal.
“It’s not helpful,” said Senate Republican Whip John Thune (S.D.), the No. 2-ranking Senate GOP leader.
Trump appears to be aiming his pressure campaign on Johnson and House Republicans, who could kill any deal on Ukraine funding and border security that passes the Senate.

Trump didn’t build the wall anyways.
@L0bby1stRonnieRepublican5mos5MO
Dropping the numbers of illegals to enter to 1.5 million per month is not much of a deal. They should not agree!
@OrangeFredDemocrat5mos5MO
Republicans realize they made a mistake in overturning Roe, so now they can't run on abortion
They don't want to make the same mistake with comprehensive border legislation
@AmbitiousChoughGreen5mos5MO
And when/if Trump and Republicans are back in office, they’ll immediately forget there even is a border and just give bigger tax cuts to millionaires, billionaires and corporations
