That is what happened here. Republicans came to the table and said “we will give you Ukraine aid if we get a border deal”. Biden undercut progressives and started making offers that Republicans wanted for Ukraine aid and to put his name on the border deal. So Republicans took their ball and went home.

Right, the entire point was to make their fake border crisis seem legitimate by placing it in the same rhetorical box as a genocide in Ukraine. And super Saiyan Biden called their bluff like a boss.
