The obvious question is: Why didn’t the republicans get it done when they had majorities in both houses? We all know the answer, but it makes it tough to make it all the democrats’ fault.

Can you imagine this all out war going on with Paul Ryan as Speaker of the House?

I can’t.

The Democrat win was a total loss for the American people, now Trump can raise holy hell with the Dems.

The same reason they caved on ending Obamacare after they all campaigned on it. They're liars and cowards.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

They passed the Secure Fence Act in 2006 when they had majorities in both houses.
Where’s the fence?

They defunded it after we refused them amnesty.

Since the Republican base responded by primarying a large part of those who were the logjam on the Republican side, that would be an entirely nonsensical question.

That is why even democrats aren’t asking it.

They needed 60 votes in the Senate, and wouldn’t have gotten that even if flocks of flying pigs darkened the sky at noon.
