Unbelievable! Polling shows people blame Biden more than Trump for killing the border bill

Trump specifically said that Republicans should vote against the bipartisan bill. Why don’t people see this? The media deserves part of the blame if this isn’t clear to people.

WHY DEMS HAVE A RIGHT TO BE FRUSTRATED:
Trump ordered Congress Rs to kill the border bill. They did as told. So who gets the blame? Biden (49%), not Trump (38%).

The compromise, bipartisan border legislation was killed by Republicans with Trump's encouragement. So here's who Americans blame. https://t.co/FNoxUeevta pic.twitter.com/Kqh0r7ZPn4

All those Dems who helped move the Overton window further to the far right on immigration & tried to pass a draconian border security bill, & then pretended to be playing 3D chess when the GOP rejected it, saying: ‘well, ha, now the voters will blame & punish them!’

Trump has referred to his opponents as “vermin” who are trying to “destroy America and to destroy the American dream,” and claimed that immigrants are “poisoning the blood of our nation.” The Hitlerian overtones have not gone unnoticed. https://t.co/rlj4bRGKzu

Abortion polls – the terrible Supreme Court decision is more unpopular now than when it was made

In the year since Roe v. Wade was struck down, polling for the first time shows that a majority of Americans say abortion is “morally acceptable.” They are also more likely to identify as “pro-choice” over “pro-life” for the first time in two decades. https://t.co/7lbtewClum pic.twitter.com/skACk84Kvw
