Former President Donald Trump on Saturday said he was willing to take responsibility for the potential demise of a bipartisan border deal that's being ironed out in the Senate.

During a campaign appearance in Las Vegas, Trump spoke out against congressional efforts to broker an immigration agreement amid the former president's sustained attacks against President Joe Biden on the explosive issue.

"As the leader of our party, there is zero chance I will support this horrible open borders betrayal of America," the former president told his supporters. "I'll fight it all the way. A lot of the senators are trying to say, respectfully, they're blaming it on me."

"I say, that's OK," he continued. "Please blame it on me. Please."

Lankford went on TV and pretended the deal did not involve allowing 8500 illegals per day to enter our country instead he used cute lil words but never denied the number

Bipartisan = weak compromise that’ll favor the Democrats.

Are you saying the Trump quotes are fake?

Are you saying the article has some false or fake information?

Or, are you saying you don’t know what you are talking about?

The quote was reported everywhere, and the video of Trump saying it is easy to find.

It’s all Trump’s fault that a carefully crafted deal to protect the interests of the elites while shouldering the citizens and taxpayers into the ditch falls apart.

That's what's required to give any credence to anything BI 'reports'.

No deal needs to be done, if Biden cared about the border he would’ve done something in his first 3 years. He doesn’t need legislative approval, he has executive power he’s unwilling to use.

He has no one else to blame, but himself.

Brilliant political move.

Now, Uniparty has a decision to make - Trump, or the money.

Of course, they’ll take the money, but Trump wins either way.

The people that want to make the USA look like a Third World country should just move themselves to a Third World country.

The Democrats have brain-washed their followers into believing that any bill can solve a problem as long as it has the right name on it and includes plenty of new spending.
