Thing is one needs more than just a majority. This is along party lines which is straight Republican or Democrat. The parties have been not very bipartisan for a long time. Need a super majority. It was the Democrats that lied to Reagan and did not build the fence after they said they promised they would with the first amnesty.Fast forward to present and as far as I know neither party has had a super majority. They have had simple majorities which require 2/3 of Congress to go with something if they want to pass it. Sort of like when Trump was in they would’ve needed a portion of the Democrats to join them in order to ratify something to go to the president in order for it to become law. And if something went to the president and he vetoed it then it would need 3/4 of them for them to bypass the presidents veto.When it comes to securing the border it is the Democrats that have been in the way every time since Reagan. At least in my lifetime since old Carter.so one could technically say it’s Congress‘s fault. But the fact of the matter it’s the Democrats in Congress that have prevented the border for being secure and letting this invasion occurs.</blockquote>
