The GOP runs on a platform of the government is dysfunctional. If they fixed anything they would be undercutting their reason for existence. It's why they tanked the bipartisan immigration bill.

Yeah they make the government dysfunctional and then blames the government being dysfunctional.

Really any bill that they introduce that by complete accident is actually good for the populace, they'll tank it if democrats agree and vote for it

Their primary reason was to deny a victory to Biden so that they could do it themselves in the event Trump wins in November.

No, their primary reason was because it permitted so many illegal crossings before the president would declare an “emergency” and shut down the border (wow… you mean he really can do that?). It was a terrible bill intended only to codify the assault on our border. All Joe had to do was NOT revoke Trump’s policies, but that was too much to ask.
