"Senate GOP Split Over Border Deal Threatens Bipartisan Progress Amid Trump's Influence"
TL;DR Summary
Senate Republicans' demand to tie border security to national security funding for Ukraine has led to splits within the party, threatening the chances of a bipartisan border deal. Former President Donald Trump's public opposition to the deal and urging of lawmakers to oppose it has further complicated negotiations. Despite optimism from some senators, divisions within the Republican party and Trump's involvement may hinder the passage of the bipartisan plan to address the crisis at the southwest border.
