"Border Politics: Biden Blames Trump, GOP Trap Backfires, McConnell Admits Defeat"

President Biden urged Republicans to support a Senate compromise bill for border funding and national security, accusing Donald Trump of obstructing the bill for political gain. Biden emphasized the importance of the bill for tightening border security and providing crucial funding to Ukraine in its fight against Russia, while also criticizing Trump's influence on congressional Republicans. Trump's campaign fired back, blaming Biden for the increase in border crossings and asserting that Trump would use executive powers to "shut the border down" if reelected. Biden highlighted the urgency of providing aid to Ukraine and framed supporting the bill as standing up to Putin.
