Republicans support this bill. Trump told a number of Republicans NOT to sign it, because he wants to continue creating problems in order to campaign on hatred.

It notes in the letter why the bill is required, for extra funding and support for patrols, basically an increase in the border security that's already in place. A major budget approval is required by Congress for that. Presidents don't have that kind of role in 'appropriations'. Congress manages appropriations: https://appropriations.house.gov/about

He can activate the national guard of fifty states. He has no need for "appropriations". The man signed 50 executive orders on day one.

Poison pill.

you see, I added in that link later, like a trigger law.

You know that's not the normal job of the national guard, right? At best it would be temporary and ridiculously expensive, and would create a stupid standoff with the Texas national guard. It would be stupid in all three of those ways. Border security, ever since Trump reduced deportations, encouraging migrants to cross over, has been a problem that's required additional support and funding. That's why a committee was formed and the BIPARTISAN bill written. It's NOT a national guard problem. Trump wants you to think what you are thinking.

Yes, the duty of the national guard seems to not be guarding the nation, but acting in foreign banking wars.

Did you have a point? Because I stopped reading after that fist sentence.

I stopped reading after that fist sentence.

Keep reading, though I see here that you admit to having absolutely no credibility in a discussion about the different roles of the National Guard and the CBP.

Your response is inappropriate and offensive. Autism is not a joke.

I'm not joking.

He doesn't use the power he's already been given. What makes you think giving him more power will get utilized toward anything productive. He's just stalling and shifting blame. Some how Trump was able to do it with no more money or resources than Biden has now.

Every resource given is used in the opposite way currently.

NOT True. This is not about Biden, as if he were an evil mastermind who would play politics by trying temporary clown shows with expensive national guard deplyments and standoffs with state national guards. The CURRENT border security obviously requires additional support that will continue for years, not a repurposing of the national guard for nonsense.
