Daily Beast Columnist Says James Lankford Is in a 'Lose-Lose' Proposition Over 'Restrictive' Bill

As we've been pointing out all day yesterday and all day today, liberal media outlets and Democrats have suddenly discovered there's a crisis at the border, three years after President Joe Biden undid all of Donald Trump's executive orders to keep the border secure. What does it say about a "bipartisan" border control bill that Democrats and the media are all suddenly hot to close down the border? We thought immigration was a good thing. We need those people to pick our vegetables, clean our hotel rooms, and beat up our cops. Why the abrupt support for this particular bill (which is really a Ukrainian funding bill)?

We've heard hot takes from Vox to Rep. Eric Swalwell, who suddenly wants the border closed. Weird.

Matt Lewis, a columnist for The Daily Beast, says that Sen. James Lankford, who authored this terrible bill with Sen. Chuck Schumer, has learned that negotiating an immigration bill is a thankless "lose-lose" position for a Republican, no matter "how conservative or restrictionist" the bill is. This bill is neither conservative nor restrictionist. Conservatives passed border control legislation in the House more than 260 days ago, but Schumer won't bring it before the Senate.

Great point. Democrats, including President Biden, love the "bipartisan" bill. It's not too conservative for them?

It's a bad bill and Lankford is a bad negotiator. "Even if it's a great bill" … yeah, show us a great bill and maybe Republicans will consider it. Lankford's reputation is destroyed by him participating in this farce.
