"Trump's Border Negotiation Battles with McConnell, House Dems, and Senate"

Former President Trump is pressuring Senate Republicans to reject a compromise on border security, setting up a battle over the party's future and Ukraine aid. Trump's call to hold out for "everything needed" is met with pushback from McConnell's leadership team, who argue that the Senate package is the best chance to address the migrant flow and provide tools for border security. Some Republicans warn that denying the deal would be a political mistake and jeopardize support for Ukraine. McConnell emphasizes the unique opportunity to accomplish something in divided government, while Trump's influence over House Republicans adds uncertainty to the fate of the proposed deal.
