The short version is the Republican party is now ran by Trump who is, frankly, an idiot. Trump single-handedly killed the bipartisan Ukraine/Border deal because it would make Biden look good. Biden relented and gave Republicans a win-win deal, and Trump was too blinded by Biden getting positive press to allow the deal that would get Republicans good press and something they have been pushing for for decades.
