    Republicans presently have only a one member margin in their majority. So, you are saying there are no Republicans that will vote for a foreign aid package. I don’t think that’s the case.

      2/3 of congress would need to vote for it. I really do not see that many Republicans willing to go along with Democrats right now.

            Border security can’t get through the Senate, so it really makes no sense to try the House.

            A Joke, but not a funny one.
