“Leading Senate Republicans are warning their House colleagues not to play political games with the current immigration negotiations because they won’t get a better deal down the road under a potential second Donald Trump presidency,” NBC News reports.
Said Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC): “To those who think that if President Trump wins, which I hope he does, that we can get a better deal — you won’t. You got to get 60 votes in the United States Senate.”
He added: “To my Republican friends: To get this kind of border security without granting a pathway to citizenship is really unheard of. So if you think you’re going to get a better deal next time, in ‘25, if President Trump’s president, Democrats will be expecting a pathway to citizenship for that. So to my Republican colleagues, this is a historic moment to reform the border.”
